  "The MDA continues to strongly oppose this new dental hygienist position as proposed," said MDA President Jamie Sledd."Though the bill has recently been amended by the Senate author, there are still significant flaws in the language that potentially compromise patient safety and fail to provide comprehensive solutions to the dental access problem in our state.The MDA is currently supporting an amended version that calls for a collaborative effort among all stakeholders to seek a solution that makes best use of the entire dental team."
  
  MDA has initiated a strong grassroots initiative to help defeat the bill, added Dr. Sledd.
  
  "We are extremely pleased with the response of MDA members throughout the state," she said."The MDA has sent out dozens of legislative alerts, electronic newsletters and special bulletins to members requesting their assistance in contacting their legislators to oppose this controversial and experimental proposal.
  
  "Hundreds of members have responded by calling or writing their legislators, sending letters to editors of local papers and attending town hall, Chamber of Commerce and other local meetings," said Dr. Sledd.Students from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry were also active participants in grassroots activities.
  
  "This collective effort has helped influence some key legislators' votes so far and we hope to continue these powerful grassroots efforts throughout the session," said Dr. Sledd.

  "It's a great concern to the dental community and the citizens of Minnesota," said Dr. Jamie Sledd.
  
  Sledd is the president of the Minnesota Dental Association and is worried about being the first state to create the position of oral health practitioner - who would be able to perform oral surgery.
  
  "The training that is being recommended or suggested for this group of hygienists is less than half of what a dentist receives in dental school," explained Sledd.
