Dentovio is not the New Jersey dental board. This is an independent educational directory; confirm final licensure, renewal, discipline, fee, form, and application decisions with the official board.

## Direct answer

New Jersey State Board of Dentistry (Division of Consumer Affairs) is the official dental board source Dentovio links for New Jersey. Use the board link for final licensure decisions, and use Dentovio's independent page to jump to New Jersey CE requirements, renewal notes, and foreign-trained dentist pathway references. CE snapshot: Dentists: 40 hours / 2 years (biennial); hygienists: 20 hours / 2 years (biennial).

## CE snapshot

- Dentist: 40 hours / 2 years (biennial)
- Dental hygienist: 20 hours / 2 years (biennial)
- Dental assistant: 10 hours / 2 years (biennial) — Registered Dental Assistants and Limited Registered Dental Assistants have a CE requirement

## Foreign-trained dentist pathway signal

Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD only. Graduates of dental programs outside the U.S./Canada (non-CODA) must complete two years of additional training in a CODA-approved program and receive a D.D.S. or D.M.D. degree. There is no CODA-residency-alone (GPR/AEGD) pathway to full general licensure — a residency does not replace the advanced-standing dental degree.
