No. With a law change effective Nov. 1, 2012, the grace period has been eliminated. All renewals and payments are due to the Board office by Jan. 1 of each year. You may still renew until March 31st by paying the renewal fee plus late fee, but your license or permit is considered EXPIRED and it would be a violation of the State Dental Act to work on an expired license or permit.

Although it is not law that an X-Ray must be taken every year, the definition of "patient" or "patient of record" means an individual who has given a medical history and has been examined and accepted by a dentist for dental care. Therefore, it is dentist discretion on what he/she considers an exam and the Board of Dentistry cannot tell a dentist how to run his/her practice. Please call the Board Office if you have any questions about this.
