PETITION: Legalize Teeth Whitening for Trained Non-Dental Professionals in Michigan

We, the undersigned, are calling on the State of Michigan, the Michigan Board of Dentistry, and the Michigan Dental Association to modernize current regulations and allow trained, certified non-dental professionals to provide cosmetic teeth whitening services.

Teeth whitening is a non-invasive cosmetic service that is already safely offered by trained professionals in many states. Consumers deserve safe, affordable, and accessible options outside of traditional dental offices.

We support:
✔ Certification and training requirements
✔ Safe limits on whitening ingredients
✔ Clear regulations to protect consumers
✔ Collaboration with dental professionals when needed

This change will:
• Expand access to affordable cosmetic services
• Support small business owners and entrepreneurs
• Create economic growth in local communities
• Maintain public safety through proper regulation

We urge Michigan lawmakers and regulatory boards to take action and create a fair pathway for licensed or certified non-dental professionals to legally provide teeth whitening services.
