	Description:		Lawmakers are being asked to consider two competing proposals surrounding access to dental care. One would allow mid-level practitioners to be licensed, while the other would provide incentives to would-be dentists. A coalition called Floridians for Dental Access wants the Florida Legislature to allow licenses for dental therapists . Therapists have more training than a dental hygienist and less training than a dentist. They can perform services like filling cavities and pulling teeth.
