Any person whose license shall have been suspended for such cause shall, during the period of such suspension, be regarded as an unlicensed person and, in case such person shall continue or engage in the practice of dental hygiene during such period, shall be liable to the penalties prescribed by section 11 of P.L. 1979, c. 46 (C. 45:6-58) for practicing dental hygiene without a license.
