was informed of the situation and granted his or her consent to the dentist,
and that the dentist assumed liability for the injection performed on the
patient.
(b) Shall indicate that
the inferior alveolar injection was completed within 6 weeks from the time that
the licensed dental hygienist completed the coursework; or, if licensed by
