The Texas State Board of Dental Examiners (TSBDE) is responsible for regulating the practice of dentistry in Texas. The rules and regulations that affect how you practice dentistry can change any time. How do you know you’re in compliance? TDA works directly with the TSBDE to keep you in the loop on what’s changing at the state level—and how to stay compliant. TDA members can also contact us to get individual compliance assistance. Click HERE for resources about TSBDE compliance. To contact us directly: 

Email Diane Rhodes, Senior Policy Manager or call 512-443-3675.

Dentists are subject to regulations from government entities other than the TSBDE, too. (The DEA, EPA, and DSHS are some other examples.) Did you know Texas has new controlled substance regulations? And new dental x-ray equipment regulations? We can help you navigate these—and make sure you’re in compliance. Click HERE for information on non-TSBDE regulatory help.
