REVIEW OF DENTISTRY. 371

The Board may cause inquiry to be made into the case of a
person alleged to be liable to have his name erased under this
section, and on proof of such conviction or of such infamous or
disgraceful conduct may direct the Registrar to erase the name
of such person from the Register: Provided, that the name of a
person shall not be erased under this section until he has been
heard in his defence, nor on account of his adopting or refraining
from adopting the practice of any particular theory of dentistry
or dental surgery, nor on account of a conviction for a political
offence out of Her Majesty's dominions, nor on account of a con-
viction for an offence which, though within the provisions of this
section, does not, either from the trivial nature of the offence or
from the circumstances under which it was committed, disqualify
a person for practicing dentistry.
13. Where the Board directs the erasure from the Register
of the name of any person, or of any other entry, the name of
that person or that entry shall not be again entered on the Reg-
ister, except by direction of the Board, or by order of a Court
of competent jurisdiction, but the Board may, if it thinks fit
in any case, direct the Registrar to restore to the Register any
name or entry erased therefrom without fee, or on payment of
such fee, not exceeding the registration fee, as the Board may
from time to time direct, and the Registrar shall restore the same
accordingly.
14. From and after the first day of January, one thousand
eight hundred and ninety-three, no person other than a medical
practitioner shall be entitled to take or use the name or title of
" Dentist," or of " Dental Practitioner," or of " Dental Surgeon,"
or any name, initials, title, addition or description, implying that
he is registered under this Act, or that he is a person qualified to
practice dentistry (either alone or in combination with any other
word or words) unless he is a registered dentist under this Act.
And any person who, after the first day of January, one thousand
eight hundred and ninety-three, not being a medical practitioner
or dentist registered under this Act, takes or uses any such name,
initials, title, addition or description, as aforesaid, shall be liable
on conviction to a penalty not exceeding twenty pounds for
every day during which he so represents himself.
Every person registered under this Act as a dentist, and
15.
every medical practitioner, shall be entitled to practice dental
surgery or dentistry in any part of New South Wales, and to sue
