When do rules and regulations governing the practice of dentistry in NC become effective?

In the context of North Carolina’s dental regulations, rules and regulations become effective 30 days after their passage. This timeframe allows for adequate dissemination of the information and necessary adjustments by dental professionals to comply with the new regulations. It also grants a period for stakeholders and the public to understand and prepare for the implementation of these regulations. This practice is common in many jurisdictions to ensure that affected parties have a reasonable opportunity to adjust their practices accordingly.
