What changed in California dental sedation and anesthesia permits in 2025?
Use the current Board permit framework and the 2025 alert instead of pre-2025 sedation labels. Sedation questions often combine permits, staffing, emergency readiness, and consent duties. If a familiar sedation shortcut conflicts with the current permit framework, the current framework wins.
