Dentovio is not a dental board. Confirm current application forms, education rules, exam acceptance, score windows, jurisprudence requirements, endorsement eligibility, reciprocity, credentialing, fees, and foreign-trained exceptions directly with Wyoming Board of Dental Examiners.

## Direct answer

For dentist license requirements in Wyoming, Dentovio's sourced licensure record highlights education/pathway language, exam signals, and any residency, endorsement, reciprocity, or credentialing notes it could isolate. Education/pathway signal: Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD only. Wyoming Statutes 33-15-108(a) requires the DDS/DMD to be earned from a U.S. or Canadian college/university accredited by CODA, and the licensure-by-examination rule (Admin Rules 034, Ch. 3, Sec. 6(b)(iii)) Exam signal: iNBDE required (rules explicitly cite 'successful passage of the INDBE'; iNBDE replaced NBDE Parts I/II). Clinical exam: a regional exam demonstrating competency in endodontics, fixed prosthodontics, periodontics, and restorative. Confirm current requirements, application forms, score windows, endorsement eligibility, and foreign-trained exceptions with Wyoming Board of Dental Examiners.

## Education and pathway signal

Advanced-standing CODA DDS/DMD only. Wyoming Statutes 33-15-108(a) requires the DDS/DMD to be earned from a U.S. or Canadian college/university accredited by CODA, and the licensure-by-examination rule (Admin Rules 034, Ch. 3, Sec. 6(b)(iii)) requires official transcripts 'from a CODA accredited dental program.' A non-CODA (foreign) graduate must therefore first complete a CODA-accredited advanced-standing DDS/DMD program (typically 2-3 years). There is NO residency-based (GPR/AEGD) educational-equivalency pathway that substitutes for the CODA degree.

## Exam signal

iNBDE required (rules explicitly cite 'successful passage of the INDBE'; iNBDE replaced NBDE Parts I/II). Clinical exam: a regional exam demonstrating competency in endodontics, fixed prosthodontics, periodontics, and restorative dentistry — accepted agencies are ADEX (CDCA-WREB-CITA) and CRDTS+SRTA (WREB clinical was retired Dec 31 2022; scores of ADEX-affiliated exams still accepted). Also required: an exam on the Wyoming Dental Practice Act / board rules (jurisprudence).

## Endorsement, reciprocity, or credentials signal

GPR/AEGD/specialty residency is referenced ONLY in the endorsement track (Sec.

## Residency signal

No residency-only substitute for the required dental degree was isolated in this sourced state record.

## Notes

Controlling authorities: Wyo. Stat. 33-15-108(a) (CODA U.S./Canada degree required; written exam = National Board (now iNBDE) + Wyoming jurisprudence; clinical exam acceptable to the board) and Wyo. Admin. Rules 034, Ch. 3, Sec. 6 (Licensure by Examination: CODA transcripts, iNBDE score, regional clinical exam). GPR/AEGD/specialty residency is referenced ONLY in the endorsement track (Sec. 7(b)(iii)) as a way to cure a clinical exam that lacked a fixed-prosthodontics component for an already-licensed dentist — NOT as an educational-equivalency route for non-CODA graduates. Verify current fees and any advanced-standing transcript specifics directly with the board (dentalboard@wyo.gov, (307) 777-6529).
