| Sec. 16. Expiration, renewal and restoration of licenses.
| 6 |
| The expiration
date and renewal date for each license issued | 7 |
| under this Act shall
be set by
rule. The renewal period for | 8 |
| each license issued under this Act shall be 3 years. A dentist | 9 |
| or dental hygienist may renew a license during the month
| 10 |
| preceding its expiration date by paying the required fee. A | 11 |
| dental hygienist
shall provide proof of current | 12 |
| cardiopulmonary resuscitation certification at
the time of | 13 |
| renewal. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation certification training | 14 |
| taken as a requirement of this Section shall be counted towards | 15 |
| the continuing education hours under Section 16.1 of this Act.
| 16 |
| Any dentist or dental hygienist whose license has expired | 17 |
| or whose license is
on inactive status may have his license | 18 |
| restored at any time within 5 years
after the expiration | 19 |
| thereof, upon payment of the required fee and a showing of | 20 |
| proof of compliance with current continuing education | 21 |
| requirements, as provided by rule.
| 22 |
| Any person whose license has been expired for more than 5 | 23 |
| years or who has

| the Department of taking continuing education and of his | 2 |
| fitness to have the license restored, including sworn
evidence | 3 |
| certifying to active practice in another jurisdiction, and by | 4 |
| paying
the required restoration fee. A person practicing on an | 5 |
| expired license is
deemed to be practicing without a license. | 6 |
| However, a holder of a license may renew the license within 90 | 7 |
| days after its expiration by complying with the requirements | 8 |
| for renewal and payment of an additional fee. A license renewal | 9 |
| within 90 days after expiration shall be effective | 10 |
| retroactively to the expiration date.
| 11 |
| If a person whose license has expired or who has had his | 12 |
| license on inactive
status for more than 5 years has not | 13 |
| maintained an active practice satisfactory
to the department, | 14 |
| the Department shall determine, by
an evaluation process | 15 |
| established by rule, his or her fitness to resume
active status | 16 |
| and may require the person to complete a period of evaluated
| 17 |
| clinical experience and may require successful completion of a | 18 |
| practical
examination.
| 19 |
| However, any person whose license has
expired while he has | 20 |
| been engaged (1) in federal or state service active
duty, or | 21 |
| (2) in training or education under the supervision of the | 22 |
| United
States preliminary to induction into the military | 23 |
| service, may have his
license restored without paying any | 24 |
| lapsed
renewal or restoration fee, if within 2 years after | 25 |
| termination of such
service, training or education other than | 26 |
| by dishonorable discharge, he
furnishes the Department with |

| Sec. 49. Identification of dentures. | 7 |
| (a) Every complete upper and
lower denture and removable | 8 |
| dental prosthesis fabricated by a dentist,
or fabricated | 9 |
| pursuant to his or her prescription, shall
be marked with the | 10 |
| name or social security number, or both, of the patient
for | 11 |
| whom the prosthesis is intended. The markings shall be done | 12 |
| during
fabrication and shall be permanent, legible and | 13 |
| cosmetically acceptable.
The exact location of the markings and | 14 |
| the methods used to apply or implant
them shall be determined | 15 |
| by the dentist or dental laboratory fabricating
the prosthesis. | 16 |
| If in the professional judgment of the dentist, this full
| 17 |
| identification is not possible, the name or social security | 18 |
| number may be omitted.
| 19 |
| (b) Any removable dental prosthesis in existence
which was | 20 |
| not marked in accordance with paragraph (a)
of this Section at | 21 |
| the time of fabrication, shall be so marked at the
time of any | 22 |
| subsequent rebasing or duplication.
