T
he Honorable Douglas A. Ducey
Governor of the State of Arizona
1700 W. Washington Street, 9
th
Floor
Phoenix, Arizona 85007
D
ear Governor Ducey,
Enclosed for your consideration is the FY23 budget request for the Arizona State Board of Dental
Examiners (“Board”).
T
he Board is requesting an additional appropriation for an full-time equivalent position and
appropriation increase for an Administrative Assistant III to be assigned to the licensing division. As
you likely know, the Board has experienced over a 35% growth in new licensees over the past 11 years.
Therefore, it’s essential to create a new FTE to help with this increased number of new applicants and
licensees renewals now being due on the licensee’s birthday every third year instead of only on June
30 and in accordance with the passage of SB1013. The Board anticipates that the position will be filled
at a grade 17 with an approximate annual salary of $40,524. In order to keep up with the demand in
the licensing division, it is essential to receive the requested appropriation to not only fulfill the mission
of the Board, but also your mission of ultimately protecting the public’s health, safety and welfare.
A
dditionally, staff from ADOA-ASET notified state agencies of the increase for Adobe licenses on
July 27, 2021. According to the information, the estimated cost for the agency would be no less than
$6,137.62 for the entire year, but could increase based on the Board’s Adobe envelope usage. The
Board is requesting funding for additional office space for the investigation team to share. The
expected cost for fiscal year 2023 will be approximately $6,138.
La
stly, the Board is requesting a one-time increase for an employee who may retire in fiscal year 2022.
Each year this employee has a carryover of annual leave in excess of 320 hours. Therefore, the
estimated cost to cash out the annual leave is $11,770.
T
he requested funds to the budget will assist the agency’s commitment to a seamless business practice
while also continuing to provide excellent customer service to all of the public. We maintain our
commitment to protect the oral health, safety and welfare of Arizona citizens.
T
hank you for the opportunity to provide you information regarding our agency and your consideration
of our budget request. Please let us know what questions we can answer. We are happy to respond.
Respectfully,
Ry

FTE – Admin Assistant III
Summary:
The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) is requesting an additional full-time equivalent position
and appropriation increase for an Administrative Assistant III. The passage of SB1013 amending sections 32-
1236, 32-1276.02, 32-1287 and 32-1297.06 of the Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to the State Board of Dental
Examiners spreads out the number of renewals received in a year from one expiration date to 365 expiration
dates.
Description of the issue and how recommending the agency’s request furthers the agency’s mandates:
The passage of SB1013 amended the license expiration date to the licensee’s birthday every third year. Every
licensed dentist, dental hygienist, denturists and soon to be added – dental therapists shall submit to the Board a
complete renewal application and pay a license renewal fee on or before the licensee’s birthday every third year.
In fiscal year 2021, the Board had a total licensing population of over 10,588 licensees. The agency will need a
designated staff member to process renewals within thirty (30) days after the licensee’s birthday. This new FTE
will be responsible for process roughly 3,529 renewal applications per year. This new FTE is not only
responsible for receiving, reviewing, requesting outstanding information, submitting renewal certificates,
updating the database system and responding to all daily inquiries regarding renewals. This time intensive
process is critical to the dental community, given that an expiration date is necessary in order to practice in the
state.
Proposal:
The agency will create and fill a new Administrative Assistant III position to assist in the renewal application
process of all licensees and the intake of initial applications.
Alternatives considered and reason for rejection and impact of not funding:
If an additional FTE is not hired, the agency will not be able to process renewal applications in a timely manner
with the addition of ongoing renewals submitting on a daily basis instead of being due on June 30 of each year.
This would slow down the renewal application process, which has been a problem for our agency and due to not
being fully staffed until FY2022 based on the budget passed. We will need to continue to pay staff overtime to
help try and meet the new thirty (30) day timeframe to complete renewal applications. For the past three (3)
years we have been behind on renewal, given the roughly 35% increase in licensing. And, although the Board is
very diligent about reducing fees based on the fund balance, which they voted in favor again for the next three
years, not meeting the renewal or licensing timelines requires a refund of fees collected for both processes. As a
90/10 agency that would mean the general fund would also lose revenue.

Classification of new positions:

Annualization:
PS - $40,500

Adobe Products Price Increase
Summary:
The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) is requesting an appropriation increase for the
Adobe products increase. The Arizona Department of Administration technology division informed all
state agencies that the current contract with Adobe will end September 2021 and an increase will take effect
if agencies continue using Adobe products.
Description of the issue and how recommending the agency’s request furthers the agency’s mandates:
The Arizona Department of Administration informed us that the current Adobe contract is ending
and state agencies would need to purchase Adobe at the increased cost or work with another
company who provides similar products and services. The agency was informed of this news on
July 27, 2021, which creates more problems, given that most documents posted on BODEX’s
website are Adobe documents. Along with every other state agency, BODEX was surprised by
this news, given the additional cost that we did not expect, nor request in our FY2022 budget.
ASET informed agencies that “this is part of doing business; contracts change”. The projection
for the entire fiscal year is $333.40 for 5 Adobe DC Pro licenses, $882.22 for 3 Adobe Audition
licenses and $4,920 for 6,000 envelopes, which is roughly $6,137.62. BODEX would rather
continue its current relationship with Adobe since the eminent cancellation of the current contract
does allow for staff to adequately review other similar products, and therefore, keep things
unchanged for now and give staff the proper time to investigate other products and pricing levels.
Doing so helps BODEX to continue to work towards operating in a paperless environment and
avoid the additional work required to change documents, processes and posting materials on the
BODEX’s website.
Proposal:
The agency is requesting an increase to the appropriation to pay for Adobe products.
Alternatives considered and reason for rejection and impact of not funding:
If the agency does not receive funding, then the agency will need to post documents on the website that are
not fillable, not user friendly and an archaic process of meeting the needs of Arizona citizens. The result
will be the agency returning to a paper environment, instead of a paperless work environment. This will
take time to pull Adobe products and documents from BODEX’s website, including the board meeting
audio, which is created using Adobe audition, and re-create non-fillable documents.
Impact of not funding this fiscal year:
Organizational effectiveness will be hindered and all other processes could be slowed dramatically.

Licensee Database
Summary:
The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) is requesting an appropriation increase for a
database solution for agency. The goal is to contract with a database solution to help stream the database,
initial applications and renewal process.
Description of the issue and how recommending the agency’s request furthers the agency’s mandates:
The Board is seeking funding for a database solution that will create an automated licensing system. The
goal is to create a system that licensees can use online to help expedite all applications, while allowing staff
the ability to review and confirm applications in a timely matter in accordance with Arizona State Board of
Dental Examiners statutes and rules. The agency has struggled with its current database system, given that
all applications are manually entered into the system. The current system has slowed down the renewal
process. The total cost for the database is roughly $34,124.16 for twelve months. We would like to
streamline the process and have a user-friendly system for the dental community.
Proposal:
The agency is requesting an increase to the appropriation to pay for the database.
Alternatives considered and reason for rejection and impact of not funding:
If the agency does not receive funding, then we will continue to be behind on processing information in a
timely manner. We are hoping that the platform will increase our productivity to allow us to meet our
statutory deadlines. This is a sound investment to improve the agency’s business practice.
Impact of not funding this fiscal year:
Organizational effectiveness will be hindered and all other processes could be slowed dramatically.

Additional Office Space
Summary:
The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) is requesting an appropriation increase for office
space at 1740 W. Adams Street, Phoenix, Arizona 85007. This shared space will be designated for the
dental investigation team.
Description of the issue and how recommending the agency’s request furthers the agency’s mandates:
BODEX would like a shared office space for the dental investigative team. We are contracting with four
dentists to review complaints submitted to the Board. The space will allow the dentists to make confidential
phone calls and discuss cases that the Board will review. Currently, there is no additional space for the
dental investigative team. The dental investigators use the Executive Director’s office to work and make
confidential phone calls.
The rate is $17.87 per rentable square footage at the 1740 building. A typical office in the building is 10 x
20 and the burden amount by 18 - 20%. The breakdown would be 10 x 20 by $17.87 by 1.18, which is
rounded up to $4,200.
Proposal:
The agency is requesting an increase to the appropriation to pay for the additional shared office space.
Alternative considered and reason for rejection and impact of not funding:
There is no space for the dental investigators who come into the office to retrieve information from staff
and attend Board meetings. Most importantly, there is no private area of the dental investigators to conduct
their investigations, which contains sensitive information. A space dedicated to all four investigators will
allow them to come into the office more to work with staff.
Impact of not funding this fiscal year:
Organizational effectiveness will be hindered, given that the investigators will not have a place to come
together and meet with staff regarding complex cases.

Agency 5-Year Plan
Strategy 1
The Agency plans to build on the realized efficiencies by developing an online renewal component for business entities, online initial license application
submission, and online address changes to include the ability to order and pay for additional licenses.
Strategy 2
The Agency will ensure database enhancements will be ongoing to support the complaint process. Knowing that the Dental Practice Act may be
amended at any legislative session, the Agency must be prepared to make database modifications as they are legislated. The Agency has budgeted
funds and allocated manpower to continue the relationship with the database vendor.
Strategy 3
The database is web-based which requires the Agency to stay current with technology to include hardware, software and internet services. The
Agency plans to consult with state IT professionals for their expertise in what hardware, software and internet services are best practices for the
Agency to follow. Replacement equipment will be budgeted for as needed.
Strategy 4
In FY22, the Agency hopes to continue to use the Enterprise Imaging Solution from the State Procurement Office assuming a one-time appropriation is
granted.
Issue
1 Improve employee efficiencies with technology
When employees can be more efficient by having access to relevant and up-to-date technology, it is beneficial to both licensees and the
public. The impact of the online renewal application, which allows dentists, dental consultants, dental hygienists and denturists to renew
their license online, continues to be a convenience to the licensees using the online renewal application and in reducing the manpower
required to move a paper renewal through the process. The Agency will continue to enhance the online renewal application to increase
the number of licensees using the application.
With the success of online renewals, the Agency sees opportunity for other online functionality with the same result of convenience to
the licensees/applicants, decreasing manpower and real time information available to the public.
As the Dental Practice Act is amended, the Agency is challenged to maintain a database, which supports new processes and allows for
consistency and increases employee efficiency. Looking to the future, the Agency acknowledges new levels of dental providers are
emerging whose regulation will be added to the Dental Practice Act.
Staying current with technology is important. The Agency is challenged to maintain, upgrade and secure the database to prevent
frustration and lack of confidence in the Agency’s technology by the public using the online directory of licensees, the licensee using an
online function and staff maintaining the data.
Using technology to improve employee efficiencies includes the challenge of eliminating the flow of paper through the office.
