Abstract
The editorial emphasizes the value of the Michigan Dental Association’s (MDA) advocacy efforts in improving the dental practice environment and saving dentists money. Key initiatives include a bill ensuring dentists receive full payment without fees, laws regulating network leasing, and the elimination of a state tax on dental prosthetics. The MDA also helped expedite dental office reopenings during COVID-19 and ensured dental professionals were prioritized for vaccinations. Additional efforts include regulating mobile dental operations and updating regulations around sharps container replacement. The editorial encourages support for MDA advocacy through engagement and donations to the MDA Dental PAC.
