Florida dental assistant CE requirements

Dental assistants in Florida: No CE requirement — Florida does not license or register dental assistants generally, and no CE is required (radiography/expanded-function certificates are training-based, not CE-hour based). Renewal-cycle notes: 2-year biennium; licenses expire February 28 of even-numbered years. DENTISTS 30 hrs, HYGIENISTS 24 hrs. Mandatory courses (count toward totals unless noted): 2-hr Prevention of Medical Errors every biennium; 2-hr HIV/AIDS at first renewal; 2-hr Domestic Violence every THIRD biennium; 2-hr safe/effective prescribing of Controlled Substances every biennium... Confirm current role-specific requirements with the Florida dental board before renewing.
