SCAM ALERT: "Caller ID Spoofing" of Board of Dentistry Phone Number

It has come to our attention that scammers have begun spoofing the telephone number of the Board of Dentistry (404) 651-8000 and impersonating the Office of Investigations. The Office of Investigations does not request payment or patient information over the phone. If patient information is needed, you will receive a written request with additional instructions. If you receive a call and are unsure, please call (404) 651-8000 to verify and report the matter.
