# New York dental license requirements

Answer: For dentist license requirements in New York, Dentovio's sourced licensure record highlights education/pathway language, exam signals, and any residency, endorsement, reciprocity, or credentialing notes it could isolate. Education/pathway signal: Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD required — a residency does NOT replace dental school. A graduate of an unaccredited/unregistered foreign dental school must complete not less than two academic years of study in a registered/CODA-accredited dental school. Exam signal: National Board Dental Examination Parts I and II / iNBDE (scores sent directly from the Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations) plus a Board-accepted clinical examination (NY accepts ADEX/CDCA). Confirm current requirements, application forms, score windows, endorsement eligibility, and foreign-trained exceptions with New York State Board for Dentistry (NYSED Office of the Professions).
