Except as permitted by chapter 47-12 , it is a Class 2 misdemeanor for any licensee, registrant, or dental corporation to divide fees with, or to promise to pay a part of a fee to, or to pay a commission to any dentist or any other person, who sends patients for treatment or operation. However, nothing in this section prohibits dentists from forming a bona fide partnership for the practice of dentistry, nor the actual employment of a licensee or registrant.
