How are members selected for the North Carolina Dental Board?

By popular vote among dentists By the state legislature Appointed by the Governor Elected by the public

Correct Answer:

Appointed by the Governor

Explanation:

In North Carolina, the Dental Board is a state licensing body created by statute, and its members are appointed by the Governor (often with Senate confirmation). This setup provides executive oversight and accountability to the public, ensuring that licensing decisions and disciplinary actions reflect public protection and professional SAMPLEstandards. It is not chosen by popular vote among dentists, nor elected by the general public, nor appointed by the legislature.
