1. present satisfactory documentation from
their dental assisting school evidencing training in all functions which
expanded duty dental assistants are allowed to perform. If their training is
inadequate, they must undergo remediation in a program approved by the board;
or
2. complete a full expanded duty
dental assistant program approved by the Louisiana State Board of
Dentistry.
