Relates to the New York state dental faculty loan forgiveness incentive program

This bill establishes New York's Dental Faculty Loan Forgiveness Program to help attract and retain dental educators. Licensed dentists teaching at New York state dental schools who have completed faculty coursework and hold dental student loan debt may receive up to $40,000 annually in loan forgiveness for teaching 12+ academic credit hours per year, with a lifetime cap of $160,000. Eligibility requires current employment as a dental faculty member in New York, active dental licensure, and completion of qualifying faculty training. The program aims to increase the number of dental educators in the state by reducing student debt burdens for those entering academic roles.
