Tulsa Dentist Dr. Scott Harrington To Go Before State Board

The Tulsa dentist at the center of a public health scare is set to be questioned by the state.

The Oklahoma Board of Dentistry labeled Dr. Scott Harrington "a menace to public health," after they say he may have exposed 7,000 patients to HIV and hepatitis.

Harrington is scheduled to meet with the head of the dental board Friday, where he'll hear the evidence against him. There's a hearing next week to see if Harrington will keep his dental license.

The state says Harrington is cooperating with the investigation.
