Verify current out-of-state license options directly with the dental board. Related pathway and exam context: iNBDE, or both Part I and Part II of the NBDE (per 38-1117). Clinical competency demonstrated via a board-approved simulation/manikin-based psychomotor clinical exam (periodontal, restorative, prosthodontic, endodontic components); Confirm the current endorsement, credentials, portability, application, exam, score-age, and foreign-trained exceptions directly with Nebraska Board of Dentistry (DHHS, Div. of Public Health, Licensure Unit). ## Reciprocity, endorsement, or credentials signal Dentovio did not isolate a licensure-by-endorsement, reciprocity, credentialing, or portability signal in this sourced state record. Verify current out-of-state license options directly with the dental board. ## Related pathway context Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD only. Neb. Rev. Stat. 38-1117 requires 'proof of graduation with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree or a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from an accredited school or college of dentistry.' No alternative for non-accredited/foreign graduates is provided; a foreign grad must earn a CODA-accredited DDS/DMD (UNMC operates a 29-month advanced-standing program). Residency (postgraduate) licenses under 38-1123 require enrollment in an ACCREDITED school, so a CODA residency does not substitute for the accredited-degree requirement for full licensure. ## Related exam context iNBDE, or both Part I and Part II of the NBDE (per 38-1117). Clinical competency demonstrated via a board-approved simulation/manikin-based psychomotor clinical exam (periodontal, restorative, prosthodontic, endodontic components); regional exams such as ADEX/CDCA/CRDTS are the vehicles (WREB retired Dec 31 2022). ## Notes Statute explicitly names iNBDE/NBDE and a manikin/simulation-based clinical competency exam; it does not lock to a single regional agency. UNMC's own AEGD/postgrad programs do not accept non-CODA graduates. ## Official sources - - - - ## Related - [All dental license reciprocity and endorsement states](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-reciprocity/index.html.md) - [Dental license transfer by state](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-transfer-by-state/index.html.md) - [Dental license by endorsement by state](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-by-endorsement-by-state/index.html.md) - [Dental license by credentials by state](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-by-credentials-by-state/index.html.md) - [Dentist and dental hygienist compact states](https://dentovio.com/dentist-and-dental-hygienist-compact-states/index.html.md) - [Dental license by state](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-by-state/index.html.md) - [Nebraska dental license requirements](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-requirements/nebraska/index.html.md) - [Nebraska dental licensure exams](https://dentovio.com/dental-licensure-exams/nebraska/index.html.md) - [Nebraska dental board](https://dentovio.com/dental-boards/nebraska/index.html.md) - [Nebraska dental license lookup](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-lookup/nebraska/index.html.md) - [Nebraska dental license renewal](https://dentovio.com/dental-license-renewal/nebraska/index.html.md)
