THIS TITLE DOES NOT PROHIBIT AN EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
BROADCAST ON RADIO OR TELEVISION BY THE DEPARTMENT OR BY THE
HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF A POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THIS STATE.
(C) CLINICS.
THIS TITLE DOES NOT APPLY TO A CLINIC MAINTAINED BY A
PUBLIC SCHOOL, A STATE OR CHARITABLE INSTITUTION, OR A
BUSINESS CORPORATION, FOR ITS PUPILS, INMATES, OR EMPLOYEES
IF:
(1) EACH DENTIST THAT THE CLINIC EMPLOYS IS A
LICENSED DENTIST; AND
(2) THE SCHOOL, INSTITUTION, OR CORPORATION DOES
NOT ADVERTISE CONCERNING DENTISTRY.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the second clause
of the first sentence and the entire second,
third, fourth, and fifth sentences of Art. 32, §
18. In addition, standard language is added to
reflect more accurately the state of the present
law and to conform to the language used in
similar provisions in other titles of this
article.
In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the present
word "surgeon" is deleted as unnecessary, as the
word "physician" includes the medical specialist
who practices surgery. See the definition of
"physician" in § 1-101 of this article.
In subsection (c) of this section, the word
"charitable" is substituted for "eleemosynary".
Also in subsection (c) of this section, the words
"licensed dentist" are substituted for the words
"legally qualified dentists" in light of the
definition of "licensed dentist" in § 4-101 of
this subtitle.
The Commission to Revise the Annotated Code calls
to the attention of the General Assembly that
subsection (c) of this section extends the
exception for clinics to public schools,
charitable institutions, and business
corporations, but does not extend the clinic
exception to other types of corporations or
institutions.
The balance of the first sentence of present Art.
32, § 18 now appears in § 4-301 of this title.
SUBTITLE 2. STATE BOARD OF DENTAL EXAMINERS.
