Assistant CE

No state CE requirement — NY does not license/register 'dental assistants' as a CE-bearing profession (certified dental assisting is regulated separately and lacks a triennial CE mandate like dentists/hygienists)

Foreign-trained dentist pathway

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 program (advanced-standing) and earn the DDS/DMD. Note: NY also requires ALL initial licensees (including U.S. grads) to complete an approved dental residency of at least one year, but for foreign grads this 1-year residency is IN ADDITION to the 2-year advanced-standing program, not a substitute for it.
