Licensed dentists in Iowa may soon be allowed to perform procedures using Botox and other derma fillers if the use is directly related to the practice of dentistry.
The Iowa Dental Board is currently considering the matter, and has posted a proposed position statement on its Web site, seeking comments on the matter. Dentists will be required to get additional training to perform these procedures, according to the statement.
A survey accompanying a news story on KCCI.com that asks whether Iowa dentists should be allowed to perform Botox procedures has 34% readers in favor of the move and 49% against it.
