New Hampshire dental license renewal

For dental license renewal in New Hampshire, use the official board for filing forms, fees, deadlines, and final instructions. Dentovio summarizes the renewal CE signals: dentists need 40 hours (CEUs) / 2 years; dental hygienists need 20 hours (CEUs) / 2 years; dental assistants: No CE requirement in the state CE rule (Den 403.03) for dental assistants; the OPLC CE rule covers dentists and dental hygienists. (Certified/EFDA credential holders may face separate DANB credential-maintenance CE, not a state board mandate.). Renewal-cycle notes: Biennial cycle (renewals due by March 31; dentists renew in even years, hygienists in odd years), per N.H. Admin. Code Den 403.03. Dentists: 40 CEUs, at least 30 in clinical dental care (including a current BLS-HCP course). Hygienists: 20 CEUs, at least 15 clinical (including BLS-HCP). Mandatory for both: at least 2 CEUs infection control (CDC guidelines, live or online) and at least 2 CEUs medical-emergency training. DEA-registered licensees: 3 CEUs pain management/addiction (or pass an approved online exam). Credit: 1 CEU per lecture hour, 2 CEUs per hour of participatory clinical/lab course. CPR/BLS must be current. Excess hours do NOT carry forward. The official rule sets no explicit live-vs-self-study percentage cap (a 'half must be live' claim appears in some blogs but is not in Den 403.03 — treat as unverified).
