The Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) has published the 2013 editions of its two state publications, which feature the latest state-by-state dental assisting requirements.
DANB's State Career Ladder Templates for Dental Assistants and State Fact Booklet are available in print and online for dental assistants, educators, state legislators, oral healthcare organizations, and state dental boards.
DANB's 2013 State Career Ladder Templates for Dental Assistants features easy-to-use charts with information on each state's rules and regulations for dental assistants. Each state chart highlights job designations for dental assistants; education, exam, and training requirements; allowable functions; nondelegable functions; and levels of supervision required in each state. This information is particularly useful for dental assistants interested in relocating, educators answering questions about state regulations, dental offices needing printouts, and legislators or state dental boards comparing state regulations, the DANB noted in a press release.
DANB's 2013 State Fact Booklet provides a synopsis of current state requirements and excerpts from state dental practice acts related specifically to the dental assistant, as well as dental board contact information, the number of DANB certificants in each state, comparative salary information, information on expanded functions and radiography requirements, general dental assistant-related information on anesthesia and sedation regulations, and a list of Commission on Dental Accreditation-accredited dental assisting programs.
