Dental practices are identified as falling within the scope of Section 710 and possibly Group 1. I just don’t see it. Can any one set out the risk that I might be missing?

The situation will vary from practice to practice according to the work that each individual one does.
710.415.2.1 Note 2 refers to supplementary bonding and dental chairs. There cannot be many these days that are not powered electrically.
Whenever you inject substances (local anaesthetic) you need to be prepared to deal with adverse reactions. Suckers and defibrillators will be battery-powered, but a reliable electrical supply is desirable.
