The North Carolina Dental Society has formally announced its opposition to the proposed second dental school. This outcome reflects our clear position on the fiscal and workforce realities currently facing our profession. We will continue to monitor legislative committee agendas to ensure this directive remains in place.

The increase in support has moved this issue into the active range for legislative review. Local news outlets are now inquiring about our stance on state funding allocations. I am currently drafting a formal letter to the North Carolina Dental Society board to request a meeting on these manpower projections.

As a dentist in this state I am very concerned about the direction this is heading. This just isn't fiscally responsible.
We already have enough dentists and the schools we have are struggling with funding as it is. Stop wasting our tax money.
Ridiculous idea. The market is saturated enough in the cities and nobody wants to go to rural areas anyway. Focus on the ones we got.
Total waste of resources. Whoever thought this was a good idea clearly isnt looking at the actual numbers.
DUMB IDEA. fix the schools we already have instead of throwing more cash away on new buildings we dont need.

Keep it realistic. We dont need another state school putting out grads with massive debt and no jobs.
