I’m an RDA or CDA coming to Texas from a different state – is my license valid here and do I have to attend your school to assist here?

A quick summary on state licensure

According to Texas state regulations, to become a Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) or Certified Dental Assistant (CDA), you must take the state test and complete the necessary application process. The regulations for Dental Assistants are set at the state level and further information on these requirements can be found on the Dental Assistant National Board (DANB) website.

We recommend that students research the regulations in their specific state to gain a better understanding of their chosen profession.
