Adds one dental assistant to membership of New Jersey State Board of Dentistry.

This bill adds one dental assistant to the New Jersey State Board of Dentistry, increasing the board's total membership from 12 to 13 members. The new dental assistant member must hold a bachelor's degree, have lived and worked in New Jersey for at least 10 years, and be appointed by the Governor for a 4-year term. The bill also repeals an outdated section of law (P.L.2007, c.259, s.10) and clarifies the qualifications for both the dental assistant and dental hygienist board members. This change directly affects the board's composition and the process for selecting its dental assistant representative.
