You work in what you consider a prestigious practice. The office is modern, there is a large staff, and the dentists in the practice appear to be financially sound, but you are concerned about the assignment of duties. Routinely, the dentists assign some of the clinical staff duties for which you do not feel qualified or you have not had previous training or experience.
You have asked the doctors if this is okay for them to do, and they always confirm that they can assign the staff anything to do as long as the assignment is by a licensed dentist.
You are concerned. What can you do? What is the consequence of these assignments by the dentist or for the assistant who may perform the assigned task?
