Dear Members,

S.2937/A.4656-A (Klein/Morelle), AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to expanding the definition of the scope of practice of dentistry to authorize dentists to perform any procedure in the oral and maxillofacial area regardless of its relation to the oral cavity, was amended late last night with "compromise" language, However it does not make the legislation any better. Please assist us in continuing our opposition to this by going to http://capwiz.com/sslac click on issues and look for the NY scope alert.

Below you will find the press release on Governor Paterson's latest take it or shut it down budget extender as well as the fact sheet.
