A member asked:
Can a dental assistant be licensed to administer nitrous oxide in many states?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Most if all states require an rda to have taken a certification class in the administration of nitrous oxide before doing so. Nitrous oxide administration must be closely monitored by a dentist at that location as well.
