The State Board of Chiropractic Examiners was

The Board consists of six members appointed
by the Governor with the advice of the Secretary
of Health and Mental Hygiene and Senate advice
and consent. Four must be licensed chiropractors
nominated by the Maryland Chiropractic Associa-
tion. Two members are consumers. Members serve
five-year terms. Authorization for the Board con-

Established in 1884, the State Board of Dental
Examiners regulates the practice of dentistry by
resting the qualifications of candidates for licenses
in dentistry and in dental hygiene (Chapter 150,
Acts of 1884).
All applicants for license to practice dentistry
must be graduates of accredited dental colleges
authorized to grant degrees in dental surgery by the
laws of one of the United States or Canada. For a
license to practice dental hygiene, all applicants
must be graduates of a school for dental hygienists
approved by the State Board of Dental Examiners.
Examinations, held twice a year, are both written
and practical. Every dentist and dental hygienist
must renew their license to practice every two years.
The Board also certifies dental radiation tech-
nologists. An individual may not practice dental
radiation technology in Maryland unless certified
by the Board (Code Health Occupations Article,
sec. 4-503.1).

The State Board of Dietetic Practice was created
in 1985 to protect the public by setting standards
for the practice of dietetics in Maryland (Chapter
773, Acts of 1985). The Board licenses dietitians
and nutritionists in Maryland. Licenses to practice
dietetics must be renewed with the Board every two
years.
The Board has seven members appointed to
three-year terms by the Governor. Two are con-
sumers and five are dietitians or nutritionists.
Dietitian or nutritionist members must be licensed
to practice dietetics in Maryland. Of these, one must
be engaged primarily in clinical dietetic practice,
one in community or public health dietetic practice,
one in consulting dietetic practice, and the fifth a
faculty member in the field of dietetics or nutritional
science. Dietitian members must have practiced
dietetics for at least five of the past ten years. The
Governor appoints the dietitian and licensed
nutritionist members with the advice of the
Secretary of Health and Mental Hygiene and
Senate advice and consent. These members are
selected from a list of ten dietitians and licensed
nutritionists submitted jointly by the Maryland
Dietetic Association, the Maryland Chapter of the
American Nutritionists Association, and the presi-
dents of Maryland institutions of higher education
which graduate dietetic practitioners. Consumer
members may not be dietitians or licensed
nutritionists or have any household members who
are, and they may not have a financial interest in
providing goods or services to dietitians or licensed
nutritionists, or dietary goods or services to con-
sumers. Authorization for the Board continues
until July 1, 1995 (Code Health Occupations Ar-
ticle, sees. 4.5-101 through 4.5-502).
