Action:
Training in pulp capping for dental assistants II
Action 3449
General Information
| Action Summary |
According to regulations for registration of dental assistants II (DAII) which became effective March 2, 2011, pulp capping procedures are among the duties that a dentist may delegate to a DAII. However, training in pulp capping as part of training in amalgam or composite resin restorations was inadvertently omitted in the educational requirements for DAII’s set forth in Section 61 of the regulation. The Board has acted to include the topic of pulp capping in Section 61 without adding to the number of hours of training required for each area of practice. |
