(5)  PLACE OR ADJUST A DENTAL APPLIANCE IN A
HUMAN MOUTH; OR

(6)  ADMINISTER ANESTHESIA FOR THE PURPOSES OF
DENTISTRY AND NOT AS A MEDICAL SPECIALTY.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from the first
sentence of Art. 32, § 17 — except the fifth
clause of that sentence — from the last clause
of Art. 32, § 25(a), and from Art. 43, §
119(g)(1).

The definition is stated in the infinitive form
to permit minor verb variations of the defined
phrase, without taking these variations out of
the scope of the definition.

In item (2) of this subsection, the language in
present Art. 32, § 17(b) that refers to working
for any form of remuneration, gratuitously, or
otherwise, is deleted as unnecessary.

For the definitions of "dental appliance" and
"dental laboratory work" see subsections (c) and
(f) of this section.

§ 25(a) now

The Commission to Revise the Annotated Code calls
to the attention of the General Assembly that, by
including within the practice of dentistry the
act of being a manager of any place in which a
dental service or dental operation is performed
intraorally, the legislature unintentionally may
have made it unlawful for a dental office to
employ a business manager who is not a licensed
dentist.
