N.M. applied for a Texas Dental License in July 2020. The Texas State Board of Dental Examiners (the “Board”) denied his request based on a felony charge with no final disposition. Seven years earlier, N.M. received a deferred adjudication for a second-degree felony offense of Possession of a Controlled Substance and sentenced to 10 years probation. N.M. hired Bertolino to appeal his license denial. After hearing from the attorneys at Bertolino, the Board ruled N.M. successfully fulfilled all statutory requirements to become a licensed dentist and granted him a Texas Dental License under a five-year probated suspension, which included no period of enforced suspension. He is fully licensed to practice dentistry as long as he abides by the Dental Practice Act and the rules and regulations of the Board.
