As of January 1,2008 a licensed dentist is required to complete, on a one-time basis, no fewer than three hours in a course on dental jurisprudence and ethics.  What does this mean to you?

  • Dentists renewing their license in 2008 have three years from the start of that new registration period to complete the course, until 2011.
  • Dentists renewing their license in 2009 must complete the course by 2012.
  • Dentists renewing their license in 2010 must complete the course by 2013.
