Trust an experienced Austin dental hygienist license defense lawyer to represent you before the Board
Dental hygienists in Texas are regulated by the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners. The Board also investigates allegations and offenses that could derail your career, including:
- Breaches of patient confidentiality
- Failure to meet established dental standards of care
- Failure to follow established safety protocols to guard against infection
- Performing duties that are inappropriate for your level of licensing (for instance, procedures that should be performed by a dentist rather than a hygienist)
- Being convicted of certain criminal offenses
