Check License Status
 
You can check on the status of a dental auxiliary license by clicking here.  

Examination results are not available online, but once a person passes the examination and a license is issued, it will appear online.

Keep in mind that each dental auxiliary licensee is only allowed to perform certain duties.  For a publication of all laws and regulations governing dental auxiliaries, return to the main page.

Once you have located the individual record for an auxiliary, you can also determine what additional duties they are allowed to perform.

For a Registered Dental Assistant, the "License and Registration Class" will show the designation "COR" if they are only allowed to perform coronal polishing, "S" if they are allowed to apply pit and fissure sealants, "ULT" if they are allowed to perform ultrasonic scaling for orthodontic procedures, "X" if they are allowed to expose radiographs, and "All" if they are allowed to perform all five duties.  (If a person is allowed to perform more than one duty, "COR" will become "C" and "ULT" will become "U").

For a Registered Dental Hygienist, the "License and Registration Class" will show the designation "S" if they are allowed to perform soft tissue curettage, "L" if they are allowed to perform local anesthesia, and "N" if they are allowed to administer nitrous oxide and oxygen. The field will either be completely blank or show the designation "SLN" if they are allowed to perform all three duties. The field will show the designation "NON" if they are not allowed to perform any of the three duties.
