2. 2After a Statement of Complaint and hearing notice are served in a Board proceeding, what filing period does the rule specify for the respondent's written response?

   1. A. Within 10 working days after service
   2. B. Within 21 days after service
   3. C. Within 30 days after service
   4. D. Within 20 days after service

   Answer: D

   Explanation: The rule says, "The respondent shall file a written response to the Complaint within twenty (20) days after the service of the Statement of Complaint and notice of hearing."

3. 3A hygienist now licensed in one state previously held dental-hygiene licenses in two others. For Oklahoma reciprocal licensure, which jurisdictions must supply good-standing certification?

   1. A. Only the state of the applicant's current license
   2. B. Only the state where the applicant first qualified
   3. C. Every state in which the applicant was licensed
   4. D. Only the states where the applicant practiced recently

   Answer: C

   Explanation: The reciprocal-licensure rule requires "certification of licensure in good standing from all states licensed." The applicant's former licensing states therefore count along with the current state; the date of practice or first qualification does not narrow the set.

   2. B. Direct supervision by the dentist
   3. C. Indirect supervision by the dentist
   4. D. Direct visual supervision by the dentist

6. 6A dentist plans to personally administer enteral conscious sedation to an 11-year-old patient. Which Board authorization is specifically required for this pediatric service?

   2. B. A parenteral conscious-sedation provider permit
   3. C. A pediatric enteral conscious-sedation provider permit

   Answer: C

   Explanation: The rule says, "No dentist shall administer pediatric conscious sedation using enteral methods" to patients "ages twelve (12) and under unless such dentist possesses a permit or authorization" for pediatric enteral sedation. A facility permit concerns authorization at a location, while the dentist personally administering this pediatric service needs the provider authorization.
