I think you can apply to WA lisences, not NY.

Straight from NYS dental board:

If you completed a program of dental education in an unregistered and unaccredited foreign dental school, you must complete not less than two academic years of study satisfactory to the Department in a registered or accredited dental school program including such subjects as may be necessary for certification by such registered or accredited school that you have achieved the level of knowledge and clinical proficiency expected of a graduate of the school. If you have questions about acceptable programs, contact the New York State Board for Dentistry by e-mail at [email protected], by phone at 518-474-3817 ext. 550 or by fax at 518-473-6995.

You also must be a US citizen or a Permanent Resident; have completed a PGY-1 GPR or a specialty program; and pass NYS Child Abuse Reporting course.
