New Hampshire foreign-trained dentist residency pathway

Sourced answer

In New Hampshire, the sourced state record generally points foreign-trained dentists toward a CODA-accredited DDS/DMD or advanced-standing pathway, not a residency-only route. Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD only. NH requires graduation from a CODA-recognized DMD/DDS program. Per NH rules (Den 301/302), an applicant educated outside the U.S. whose original program was NOT ADA/CODA-approved must graduate from a CODA-accredited general dentistry program of at least 2 years' duration (i.e., an advanced-standing DDS/DMD from a U.S./Canadian CODA program) Confirm the current rule directly with New Hampshire Board of Dental Examiners (Office of Professional Licensure and Certification, OPLC) before choosing a program or filing an application. Exam signal: iNBDE (National Board), plus the ADEX clinical examination (or another regional/state clinical exam acceptable to the Board taken within the last 3 years); the ADEX written portion is also required.
