Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on denturists in Maine who say regulation of denturitry by the State Board of Dental Examiners represents a conflict of interest, which denturists claim has consistently acted to protect the practice of dentistry in Maine. Denturitry is the making and fitting of removable full dental prosthetics, an accepted independent specialty in Maine, which is the only state east of the Mississippi River legally offering this alternative. Legislation being introduced by Senate President Michael Michaud, D-Millinocket, proposes changes to provide self-regulation and other steps toward independent practice.
