If dentists have taken a 60-hour course that includes 10 clinical cases (e.g. back in 2007, Minnesota offered a course prior with only 10 clinical cases), would the DEB consider working with them on an acceptable way that they could obtain an additional 10 cases in order to meet the requirements (60 hours and 20 clinical cases) for the Class II permit without having to find another 60-hour course that specifically includes 20 rather than 10 clinical cases?
The rule as written will not allow this at the present time. The 10 additional cases are required in order for the course to be approved.
