 IN SENATE

 February 28, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sens. HARCKHAM, COONEY, WEBB -- read twice and ordered

 AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to local block anesthesia

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 6605-b of the education law, as added by chapter
 2 437 of the laws of 2001 and subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 198 of
 3 the laws of 2022, is amended to read as follows:
 4 § 6605-b. Dental hygiene restricted local infiltration
 5 anesthesia/nitrous oxide analgesia certificate. 1. A dental hygienist
 6 shall not administer or monitor nitrous oxide analgesia or local infil-
 7 tration anesthesia in the practice of dental hygiene without a dental
 8 hygiene restricted local infiltration anesthesia/nitrous oxide analgesia
 9 certificate and except under the personal supervision of a dentist and
 10 in accordance with regulations promulgated by the commissioner. Personal
 11 supervision, for purposes of this section, means that the supervising
 12 dentist remains in the dental office where the local infiltration anes-
 13 thesia or nitrous oxide analgesia services are being performed,
 14 personally authorizes and prescribes the use of local infiltration anes-
 15 thesia or nitrous oxide analgesia for the patient and, before dismissal
 16 of the patient, personally examines the condition of the patient after
 17 the use of local infiltration anesthesia or nitrous oxide analgesia is
 18 completed. It is professional misconduct for a dentist to fail to
 19 provide the supervision required by this section, and any dentist found
 20 guilty of such misconduct under the procedures prescribed in section
 21 sixty-five hundred ten of this title shall be subject to the penalties
 22 prescribed in section sixty-five hundred eleven of this title.
 23 2. Dental hygiene block anesthesia certificate. A dental hygienist
 24 shall not administer or monitor block anesthesia in the practice of
 25 dental hygiene without a dental hygiene restricted local infiltration
