Provides for regulation of dental therapists.

This bill establishes a regulatory framework for dental therapists in New Jersey, creating licensing requirements and defining their scope of practice. Dental therapists would need to complete accredited education programs, pass written and clinical exams, and work under written collaborative agreements with licensed dentists. The bill allows dental therapists to perform specific dental procedures within their scope, bill for services, and receive coverage under the NJ FamilyCare Medicaid program. It requires the State Board of Dentistry to develop detailed regulations within one year of enactment. The bill also includes provisions for out-of-state dental therapists seeking licensure in New Jersey.
