Diagnostic x-ray systems; requiring the Board of Dentistry to enforce certain laws. Effective date.

SB 439 requires Oklahoma's Board of Dentistry to enforce state and federal laws governing diagnostic x-ray systems used in dental offices. The bill mandates the Board to annually submit related health and safety data to the State Department of Health and caps inspection fees at the existing rate set by the State Health Commissioner. It updates the Board's duties to include oversight of x-ray safety standards and reporting requirements, directly affecting dentists, dental practices, and the Board itself. The law takes effect January 1, 2026, with no changes to patient care or treatment protocols.
