The North Carolina Board’s Jurisprudence and Sterilization/Infection Control examinations, organized for dentist candidates in two separate study tracks. Confirm the examinations assigned to your application with the Board. ### Are the North Carolina exams closed-book? Public evidence does not establish a closed-book format for dentist candidates. Follow the instructions issued with your own Board exam registration. Dentovio’s practice counts, topic balance, and optional timer are study choices, not official exam specifications. ### Does an experienced dentist need different preparation? This course starts with North Carolina’s own sources so a relocating dentist can distinguish familiar practice habits from this jurisdiction’s requirements. It does not assess whether you qualify for a particular license. ### Is this a Board examination or a CE course? No. This is optional independent study preparation. Register for your examinations through the Board. Buying Dentovio does not submit a licensure application or earn continuing education credit. ### Does a practice score predict my Board result? No. Practice scores identify topics to revisit. Dentovio does not claim official item weights, use recalled questions, or predict passing. ## Official sources - [North Carolina Board — online examinations](https://www.ncdentalboard.org/onlineexams.htm) - [North Carolina Board — dentist licensure](https://www.ncdentalboard.org/dental.htm) - [North Carolina G.S. 90-36 — licensing practitioners from other states](https://www.ncleg.gov/EnactedLegislation/Statutes/HTML/BySection/Chapter_90/GS_90-36.html) Dentovio provides independent educational preparation using original exam-style material.
