What must be submitted to the board within 15 days following a charitable dental event?

The requirement to submit the license numbers and names of participating dentists and hygienists within 15 days following a charitable dental event is essential for the regulatory oversight of dental practices. This ensures that all participating professionals are licensed and in good standing with the Kentucky Board of Dentistry. It serves to maintain public trust in the dental profession by ensuring that only qualified individuals are providing care, even in charitable settings.

Collecting this information also helps the board track participation in community service initiatives and promotes accountability among practitioners. By having accurate records of those who participated, the board can ensure compliance with ethical standards and regulations, promoting a higher level of professionalism within the field.

While other options might pertain to the event in various ways—like summarizing what was achieved or documenting the charitable donations—they do not fulfill the specific regulatory purpose of validating that licensed professionals participated in the event. Thus, the submission of license numbers and names is the most critical and mandated aspect following such charitable activities.
