Where are the rules for the Iowa Dental Board regarding registration requirements for dental assistants found?

• A. Iowa Dental Code 650 Chapter 20  Dental Assistants
• B. Iowa Dental Code 650 Chapter 22  Dental Assistant Radiography Qualification
• C. Iowa Administrative Code 16
• D. Iowa Code 153.39

Answer: (A)

The rules about registration requirements for dental assistants are laid out in the Iowa Dental Code, Title 650, Chapter 20, Dental Assistants. This section specifically addresses who must register, the qualifications, and how the registration process works, making it the direct authority for the board’s registration rules. The chapter on radiography qualifications covers only radiography-related requirements, not general registration. Administrative Code provisions contain implementing rules, but the question is about the statutory location that establishes the registration framework. The Iowa Code provision mentioned elsewhere addresses different topics and isn’t the primary source for dental assistant registration.
