Summary

The measure would allow hospitals to hire dentists, oral‑maxillofacial surgeons, and maxillofacial prosthodontists to treat patients on site for urgent or complex conditions. It also clarifies licensing requirements, limits corporate practice of dentistry, and creates exemptions for non‑profit, government and educational entities. The goal is to improve access to oral care in hospitals while protecting professional independence.
