Reciprocity or endorsement 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.

Exam and pathway context

National board exam by the Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations (JCNDE) — iNBDE/NBDE; plus a clinical exam administered by CDCA, CRDTS, CITA, SRTA, or WREB (or successor); plus the West Virginia Dental Law exam.

Source notes

Board policy explicitly declined to grant full licensure to foreign-trained, US-board-certified specialists without a clinical board exam (WV biennium report). So the accepted route is a 2+ year CODA advanced general dentistry OR specialty program PLUS the required national + clinical exams. This is more restrictive than a 1-year GPR/AEGD pathway. Board contact toll-free (877) 914-8266.
