A.3706, sponsored by Assemblywoman Carol Murphy (Burlington), establishes the office of State Dental Director and the NJ Oral Health Commission. VIEW
NJDA Statement: The NJDA has long advocated for the establishment of the state dental director. In 2017, the state brought on a dental director for the first time in a generation. This legislation would make the position permanent and also establish, for the first time, a NJ Oral Health Commission as a state entity bringing oral health to an elevated level of engagement with state government.
