foreign-trained dentist license in Florida

In Florida, a foreign-trained dentist generally requires a CODA-accredited DDS/DMD or advanced-standing pathway; no residency-only route was found in the cited sources. Advanced-standing / supplemental CODA program required — NOT a residency pathway. Under s. 466.006, Fla. Stat., a graduate of a non-CODA (foreign) dental school must complete at least 2 consecutive academic years of full-time study in a CODA-accredited supplemental general dentistry program that provides didactic and clinical education at the DDS/DMD level. The statute expressly excludes advanced education programs...
