foreign-trained dentist license in North Dakota
In North Dakota, 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 CODA DDS/DMD required — residency/certificate alone is explicitly insufficient. Exam signal: Passing score on an exam administered by the Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations (NBDE/iNBDE) or the National Dental Examining Board of Canada, plus a Board-approved clinical competency examination within five years of application. Confirm current requirements directly with North Dakota State Board of Dental Examiners.
