The DSE is developed by a joint committee representing NERB and SRTA and is approved by the American Board of Dental Examiners (ADEX). This examination is currently accepted toward licensure in 40+ states.
A complete description of the DSE can be found in the ADEX Candidate Manual which is available on the NERB website: www.nerb.org. Once there click on the Forms and Manuals tab and you can see or download the manual. If you have been out of school for several years, I would recommend reviewing common clinical and radiographic anatomy, radiographic technique, commonly used medications and their side effects, the current antibiotic premdication recommendations and current CPR procedures.

Im sorry to hear that you failed. Did they make you retake the entire exam or just the DSE portion. I can't seem to get any clear anwers on their site on what happens if you fail. Is there a 3 month wait like NBDE?
