As of November 28, 2012, dental practices are required to post a new notice to consumers. Business and Professions Code Section 138 requires the Dental Board, and other licensing boards within the state Department of Consumer Affairs, to require a licensee to post a notice that informs consumers that the licensee is regulated by the state. The notice must be accessible to public view on the premises where dental services are provided. Required information must be in at least 48-point type.
