Relates to the practice of dentistry

This bill amends New York's education law to update the legal definition of "practice of dentistry." It removes the phrase "related to restoring and maintaining dental health" from the definition, which previously described dental practice as including work on oral health conditions. The change affects dentists and dental practices by modifying how their profession is formally defined in state law. No new requirements or restrictions are added; the bill simply updates the statutory language to remove outdated phrasing. The amendment takes effect immediately upon enactment.
