There are two items of interest to dentistry on the April 2025 New York State Board of Regents meeting agenda: 1) the appointment of Dr. Patricia Haberman [Eighth District] for an initial five year term as an extended member of the New York State Board for Dentistry [extended members are no longer full members of the State Board for Dentistry but serve on licensure disciplinary and/or licensure restoration and moral character panels]; and 2) the final regulations on registered dental assistants applying topical fluoride varnish [these regulations are the same as the emergency regulations already in effect].  To read the Regents appointment of Dr. Haberman as an extended member of the State Board for Dentistry, use the first link below.  To read the Regents final regulations on registered dental assistants applying topical fluoride varnish, use the second link below.
