The State Board of Dental Examiners (SBDE) adopts the review of the rules contained in Texas Administrative Code, Title 22, Part 5, Chapter 102, concerning Fees, in accordance with §2001.039 of the Texas Government Code. The proposed review was published in the December 12, 2008, issue of the Texas Register (33 TexReg 10193).

The SBDE received two comments from the Texas Dental Hygienists' Association (TDHA). A summary of comments and the Board's response are set out as follows:

The TDHA suggested that §102.1 include a fee for Pit and Fissure Sealant certification and a fee for Nitrous Oxide Monitoring Certification.

The TDHA suggested that §102.2 include a cost for copying information onto compact disc (CD). Staff appreciates these comments from TDHA. However, no changes were made to §102.1 as there is no fee assessed for a registered dental hygienist to request sealant certification. No changes were made to §102.2 as the SBDE rarely receives requests for information to be placed on CD, and when this format is requested there is no separate fee imposed.

As a result of the agency's review process the State Board of Dental Examiners proposes amendments to §102.1 and the readoption of §102.2. The text of the proposed amendment can be found in this issue of the Texas Register.

The agency finds that the reasons for originally adopting the rules continue to exist.
