Abstract
This document summarizes the recent legislative achievements of the Michigan Dental Association’s advocacy team. Key highlights include the House passage of bills regulating dental specialty advertising to ensure transparency for patients and the elimination of the inactive Dental Specialty Task Force. The update also promotes the MDA’s legislative text alert system and online tools designed to help member dentists engage with lawmakers on "hot-button" issues. By staying informed through these platforms, Michigan dentists can support the MDA’s mission to improve practice conditions and access to care across the state.
