 7        Sec.  8.1.  Permits   for   administration   of   general
 8    anesthesia  or  parenteral  conscious  sedation.  No licensed
 9    dentist shall administer  general  anesthesia  or  parenteral
10    conscious sedation without first applying for and obtaining a
11    permit  for such purpose from the Department.  The Department
12    shall issue such permit  only  after  ascertaining  that  the
13    applicant  possesses  the minimum qualifications necessary to
14    protect public safety.  A person with  a  dental  degree  who
15    administers anesthesia or parenteral conscious sedation in an
16    approved  hospital  training program under the supervision of
17    either a licensed dentist holding such permit or a  physician
18    licensed  to  practice medicine in all its branches shall not
19    be required to obtain such permit.
