Alert! Phone Scam Resurfaces
Phone Scam Involving the Iowa Dental Board
The Iowa Dental Board has been made aware of recent phone calls to licensees from an individual impersonating a Board investigator or staff member. The call was made from a spoofed phone line that appeared to originate from the Board office.
Please be advised that the Board would never call a dental office and demand money or use other high pressure tactics to obtain information. A legitimate Board investigation is conducted through a formal process, which includes notification of a pending investigation and an opportunity to respond to any allegation. If you are ever unsure about a phone call regarding business with our office, please hang up and call the Board office directly at 515-281-5157.
