    Before HENDRY, KEHOE and SCHWARTZ, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

Reversed on the authority of Young v. Bramlett, 369 So.2d 652 (Fla. 1st DCA 1979), holding that the medical liability mediation procedures set forth in Section 768.-44, Florida Statutes (1977), are not applicable to alleged malpractice claims against dentists. We note that at the time the trial court entered its order in this cause it did not have the benefit of the Young opinion. The cause is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

Reversed and remanded.
