THIS SUBSECTION.

(B) EVIDENCE OF VIOLATION.

DOING DENTAL LABORATORY WORK WHILE NOT IN POSSESSION OF
A WORK AUTHORIZATION OR A SUBCONTRACTED WORK AUTHORIZATION

EVIDENCE OF A VIOLATION OF THIS SUBTITLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from Art. 32, §
25(c)7. and the first sentence of 9.

In subsection (a)(1) of this section, the term
"licensed dentist" is substituted for the term
"dental offices" to clarify what presently is
only implied in the law — i.e., that when the
Board inspects records in a "dental office", it
is inspecting records kept by a licensed dentist
under the provisions of this subtitle.

In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the present
word "certified" preceding the phrase "dental
technician" is deleted as misleading since there
is no provision for licensing or certifying
dental technicians in this State.
