Who is legally required to report child abuse in the dental office?

  1. Dentists only

  2. Dental assistants only

  3. All dental healthcare workers

  4. Office managers

The correct answer is: All dental healthcare workers

Dental healthcare workers, not only dentists or dental assistants, are legally required to report child abuse in the dental office. This includes everyone who works in the office, such as dental hygienists, front desk personnel, and office managers. While dentists and dental assistants may be directly involved in treating a child, all dental healthcare workers have a responsibility to report any suspected cases of child abuse.
