Virginia dental assistant CE requirements
Dental assistants in Virginia: No CE hour count set by the board for Dental Assistant II; renewal requires maintaining current DANB (or ADA-recognized) certification plus a current hands-on healthcare-provider CPR course. (DANB certification renewal itself requires 12 CE/year.). Renewal-cycle notes: ANNUAL renewal for both dentists (18VAC60-21-250) and dental hygienists (18VAC60-25-190): minimum 15 hrs of approved CE each year (no CE required for the first renewal after initial licensure). Confirm current role-specific requirements with the Virginia dental board before renewing.
