foreign-trained dentist license in Maine

In Maine, a foreign-trained dentist has an unclear or source-conflicted residency pathway, so the applicant should verify directly with the board before relying on it. Case-by-case 'educational equivalent' review — NOT a strict advanced-standing-DDS-only rule, and no explicit fixed CODA-residency requirement. Exam signal: National Dental Board Examination (iNBDE / NBDE or its successor) + all sections of a Board-approved regional or state clinical examination (ADEX, CDCA-WREB-CITA, CRDTS, SRTA) + the Maine jurisprudence examination (must score 90%). (WREB retired 12/31/2022.) Confirm current requirements directly with Maine Board of Dental Practice.
