HB2069 amends section 32-1263.02 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, concerning the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (Board). The bill allows the Board to issue a formal complaint and order a formal hearing if, after an investigation or review, the Board finds evidence sufficient to merit revocation or suspension of a dental professional's license. This is a change from the current law, which requires the Board to request the licensee to participate in a formal interview before issuing a formal complaint and ordering a hearing.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that if, after a formal hearing, the Board finds the information insufficient to merit suspension or revocation of the license, it may take other actions. The bill also includes technical and conforming changes, such as renumbering subsequent subsections to accommodate the new language and ensuring consistency in the references to other subsections within the statute.
