According to an article over at Seattle PI the state is considering weather to fingerprint all dentists, so that when they get in trouble with the law, like Driving Under the Influence, the state board can take proper action. Here is an excerpt:
"Having fingerprints on file makes it easier for states to monitor health professionals, said Lynn Thornton, enforcement chief of the California Dental Board. The California Health Department fingerprints dentists and others seeking licenses. The fingerprints on file mean the board is notified when dentists are arrested on DUI or other charges."
I don't know about you, but I think we are going a little to far to protect the public, maybe a better system would be to make the dentist pass a piss test before he/she can unlock the door of his/her office in the morning!
