Section 1220.560  Restoration of Permits

a)         A licensee seeking restoration of a permit after it has expired for 12 months or less shall have the permit restored upon payment of $20 plus the current renewal fee. The licensee shall also submit certification of anesthesia cases as provided in Section 1220.525(d) and the records required to be kept pursuant to Section 1220.510(n) or 1220.520(k), as appropriate to the permit held, of all anesthesia cases performed since the permit was last renewed.  The permit will be restored if the Division finds that the applicant is competent to provide anesthesia services appropriate to the permit for which restoration is sought.

b)         A licensee seeking restoration of a permit after it has expired for more than 12 months shall file an application, on forms supplied by the Division, together with the fees required by Section 1220.415.  The licensee shall also submit:

1)         Sworn evidence of lawful active practice in another jurisdiction.  The evidence shall include a statement from the appropriate board or licensing authority in the other jurisdiction that the licensee was authorized to practice during the term of said active practice; or

2)         An affidavit attesting to military service as provided in Section 16 of the Act.  If an applicant applies for restoration of the permit within 2 years after termination of such service, he/she shall have the permit restored without paying any lapsed renewal or restoration fees; or

3)         For Permit A restoration, proof of the training set forth in Section 1220.510(b)(1) taken 2 years prior to application; or

4)         For Permit B restoration, proof of the training set forth in Section 1220.520(a)(1) taken 2 years prior to application.

c)         When proof of remedial training is provided, the permit shall not be restored unless and until the Board has reviewed and approved the training.  The Board may require the renewal applicant to obtain additional training when it finds that the training completed was not sufficient.

d)         A licensee who has been granted restoration, whose license has not been active for less than 5 years due to discipline, and whose license expired during the period of discipline, must comply with the requirements of subsection (a).  If the licensee has not had an active license for 5 years or more due to discipline, the licensee must show proof of certification of training pursuant to Sections 1220.510(b) and/or 1220.520(a) or shall be required to complete such additional testing, training, or remedial education as the Board may deem necessary in order to establish the licensee’s present capacity to practice dentistry with reasonable judgment, skill and safety.
