In Texas, 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. CODA-accredited SPECIALTY program (min. 2 full-time academic years) — GPR/AEGD explicitly NOT accepted. Per TSBDE and 22 TAC §101, a graduate of a non-accredited (foreign) dental school qualifies for licensure by exam by presenting proof of successful completion of training in a CODA-accredited education program that is an ADA-approved specialty consisting of at least two full-time academic years. TSBDE states it... Exam signal: National Board — NBDE Parts I & II or the iNBDE (electronically validated); plus a general-dentistry regional clinical exam dated within 7 years — TSBDE validates ADEX and CRDTS-SRTA (exams after Jan 1, 2019 must include perio/prostho sections). Confirm current requirements directly with Texas State Board of Dental Examiners (TSBDE).
