Abstract

The recently enacted law creating an alternative pathway to dental licensure in New York state is benchmark legislation. Along with the positive effects of dental education that may ensue, the author has serious concerns that the strongly emotional and political debate occurring during the bill's consideration obscured important considerations for public safety and the erosion of standards for licensure in New York. In addition, this pathway has potential to negatively affect freedom of movement and licensure by credentials for practice in other jurisdictions.
