A 3796 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the practice of dentistry

This bill amends New York's education law to remove the phrase "related to restoring and maintaining dental health" from the legal definition of dental practice. The change modifies Section 6601, which defines dentistry as diagnosing, treating, or prescribing for oral conditions, including fabricating dental appliances. The bill does not add new requirements or affect who can practice dentistry - it only adjusts the wording in the existing definition. This is a technical update to the statutory language governing dental practice.
