AAOMS joins coalition opposing specialty recognition proposal

AAOMS signed onto a coalition letter opposing recent revisions proposed by the Ohio State Dental Board regarding specialty advertising regulations. The letter, supported by multiple national and state dental specialty organizations, urges the Board to revert to a 2018 proposal that upholds established specialty definitions defined by CODA-accredited residency, ensuring patient protection. However, if the Board moves forward with the current proposal, the coalition insists on specific revisions to address concerns. The letter follows a similar effort by the group in January to advocate for bona fide specialty recognition.
