In this wide-ranging conversation, Dr Patrick Meaney chats with Dr Murray Thomas about how Scope relates to factors like state regulations on medications, adopting new technologies like implants, specialties contributing research, and the Board's "Know Your Scope" resources. Throughout, Murray emphasizes the need for professionals to take a reflective, principled approach to responsibly expanding their scope through training, mentorship, and proper policies. The discussion clarifies dentists navigating questions around 'scope of practice' amid the changing landscape of dentistry.
