WECT NBC 6: NC Dental Board Sues Feds Over Whitening Dispute
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - North Carolina's dental regulatory board is suing a federal agency over whether dentists alone should be allowed to perform teeth-whitening procedures.

The News & Observer of Raleigh reports the lawsuit was filed in federal court in Raleigh on Tuesday. The state Board of Dental Examiners says the Federal Trade Commission overstepped its authority in trying to determine who can whiten teeth.
