Dentists and Dentistry - As enacted, requires a dental hygienist to be working under the direct supervision of a dentist seeing a new patient before completing diagnostic radiographs; assessing and recording existing hard and soft tissue data; performing prophylaxis; and applying fluoride agents. - Amends TCA Title 4 and Title 63, Chapter 5.

SB 1926 amends Tennessee law to allow the Board of Dentistry to provide its annual report to interested parties in electronic format instead of only physical copies. This change directly affects dental professionals, patients, and other stakeholders who access these reports. The bill modifies Section 63-5-106 of the Tennessee Code by adding that "Copies of the annual report may be provided in electronic format." It does not alter dental practice standards or create new regulations, only updating the reporting method for transparency. The bill is procedural and focuses solely on administrative accessibility.
