What has the Illinois State Dental Society done for me as a dentist? The Illinois State Dental Society has been successful over the years in passing many pieces of legislation that directly affect dentists in their practice.
What can't be listed are all the hundreds of bills that have been introduced that would erode the practice of dentistry and your profession. Becoming a part of organized dentistry is your way of ensuring that you have a voice when laws or regulations are introduced that could have a major impact on your livelihood. |
