![["Dr. M. Edmund Braly is writing to Congressman Glenn English expressing concerns about proposed health regulations for dentists by OSHA. He believes the regulations are excessive and costly, and unnecessary as current infection control guidelines are effective in preventing diseases. He argues that the proposed regulations would increase costs for dental care and hinder access to care. Braly also highlights specific requirements in the proposed regulations that he believes are inappropriate for dental offices. He urges Congressman English to intervene and prevent these regulations from becoming law."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%20Infection%20Control%20in%20Dental%20Offices,%201989,%201992/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Health Regulations Concerning Dentists: A Call for Congressional Support")

Dentists are concerned about the unnecessary and burdensome requirements proposed by OSHA, and they believe that current infection control guidelines are effective in preventing transmissions of infectious diseases. English assures that he will consider their concerns and take them into account if he has the opportunity to address the issue legislatively. Additionally, English expresses willingness to review any information provided by the American Dental Association and offers assistance to those who have reached out to him."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%20Infection%20Control%20in%20Dental%20Offices,%201989,%201992/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns Over Proposed Health Regulations: A Letter from Glenn English and Response from Dr. M.

![["The document is from a dentist, Steve McKeever, expressing concerns about proposed health regulations related to dentists by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. McKeever argues that the regulations are excessive and costly, and questions the need for such strict measures. He also discusses the impact of these regulations on dental equipment and the potential financial burden on dentists. Additionally, he addresses the issue of AIDS in the dental environment and challenges the necessity of certain precautions. Finally, McKeever discusses the challenges faced by dental educators in recruiting students and the declining interest in pursuing dentistry as a career."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%20Infection%20Control%20in%20Dental%20Offices,%201989,%201992/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Title: Concerns Over OSHA Regulations in Dentistry - Correspondence with Congressman Glenn English")
