SB 6020: Access to dental care

Establishing a school sealant endorsement program for dental hygienists.

Summary

  • $ Authorizes the Department of Health to establish a school sealant endorsement program for dental hygienists and dental assistants serving low-income, rural, at-risk children in school-based sealant programs.
  • $ Upon endorsement, a dental hygienist without dental supervision, and a dental assistant under general dental supervision may assess and apply sealants and fluoride varnishes to children in school-based sealant programs. However, no endorsement is required for dental hygienists currently licensed, and dental assistants currently working under dental supervision.
