Questions from dental offices

How should employers check a dental assistant's Infection Control training?

Employers should check each assistant's role, training records, and current Dental Board of California requirements before duties involving potential exposure to blood, saliva, or other potentially infectious materials.

The 2-hour Dental Practice Act course is separate from Infection Control training.

Before assigning duties involving potential exposure to blood, saliva, or other potentially infectious materials, verify the assistant's infection-control qualification under the current Dental Board rules.
