Establishes the Interstate Dental and Dental Hygienist Licensure Compact

SB 109 would create a compact allowing dentists and dental hygienists licensed in one participating state to practice in other member states without obtaining separate licenses. This directly affects dental professionals seeking employment across state lines, particularly in regions with multiple bordering states. The key mechanism establishes mutual recognition of licenses among participating states, reducing administrative barriers for practitioners. The bill is currently under review by a state committee, with no votes taken yet.
