What is the Arkansas State Licensing Process?

This article guides you through the steps of your state licensing if it applies to your state specifically!

  1. What: Registered Dental Assistant (Limited functions)
  2. When: After the externship is completed and the Dental Assistant application is signed by the dentist of the externship office
  3. What does the processing look like & when do they get/hear back: 
    • Fill out the application for registration of Dental Assistants.
      • Make sure to have everything filled out via fillable ONLY. Arkansas State Board of Dental Examiners (ASBDE) will not accept written applications.
      • Students will select 'On the job training through an Arkansas Licensed Dentist'.
    • How are you getting registered?
      • The dentist from the externship/job needs to sign off on that application.
    • Arkansas State Board of Dental Examiners (ASBDE) will email the student upon approval of the application. This email will contain the Arkansas Jurisprudence Exam that students will need to complete within 30 days of it being emailed or the application will be voided.

Radiology

We prepare students to obtain a radiology license. Students will have externship doctors (or employers, if need be) sign off on the state application to become licensed to perform radiology.
