To Dr. Robert Hall, President, Virginia Board of Dentisty,

    The regulations governing the use of sedation and anesthesia are quite thorough and more than adequate for the safety of patients in Virginia.  The petition to change the regulations proposed by Nicole Cunha are burdensome and exceed reasonable safety.  If successful, the changes will result in significantly higher cost to patients without significantly improving safety. 

Sincerely, Mitchell J. Bukzin, D.D.S.
