What California duties fall on the dental practice owner?

Practice owners are accountable for the office systems that keep records, permits, staffing, notices, and compliance duties current. Owner duties often overlap with retention, reporting, display, and supervision obligations instead of one isolated statute. When an office closes or changes operations, the owner must shift from habit to the actual California retention and notice rules.
