State CPR/BLS
Wisconsin's dental renewal rules cover CPR and BLS. The board's exact wording, who it applies to, and whether it counts toward CE hours are below.
Dentist CE
30 credit hours / 2 years
Hygienist CE
12 credit hours / 2 years
Assistant CE
Dental assistants are not licensed/regulated by the state, so no state CE requirement. EFDA (Expanded Function Dental Auxiliary) certificate is permanent (no periodic renewal), but continuing education is required to maintain competency — verify current EFDA CE terms with DSPS.
BIENNIAL (Wis. Admin. Code ch. DE 13; renewal biennium). DENTIST: 30 credit hrs / 2 yrs, of which not less than 25 must be clinical dentistry/medicine, and 2 hrs must cover prescribing of controlled substances for the treatment of dental pain. HYGIENIST: 12 credit hrs / 2 yrs, of which not less than 2 hrs must be infection control; no more than 2 of the 12 may be satisfied by BLS/CPR training. CE does not apply to the biennium in which a license is first issued. Records must be kept at least 6 years. No dedicated law/ethics hour mandate in the rule; no explicit blanket live-vs-self-study percentage cap found (governed by DE 13 approved-course criteria).
