Under the general supervision of the State Dental Health Officer or the supervision of a dentist who is licensed to practice dentistry in this State and appointed by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health of the Department of Health and Human Services to supervise dental care that is provided in a facility which has entered into a contract with the person to whom a restricted license is issued and which is approved by the Division; and
