Relating to the regulation of equine dentistry.
Currently, only veterinarians or licensed equine dental providers performing under the supervision of a veterinarian may practice equine dentistry in the state.
SB 814 would allow a student of an equine dental provider certification program, who is completing the practical requirements of the program and performs under direct supervision of a veterinarian, to practice equine dentistry.
Texas Action supports SB 814 because it loosens the overly restrictive requirements regarding who is authorized to practice equine dentistry, a result that promotes limited government.
