Hey, I am a current 3rd year dental student in Florida. Looking ahead, I was wondering how multiple state licenses work. Say for example, I wanted to be licensed in Florida and Ohio. Would I have to take different tests in both states or is there one test that would get me a license for both? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Licensure is state specific, but exams are regional. Below is a link showing which states accept which exams for licensing:

It looks like ADEX covers both states, but I would also recommend reading both state licensing requirements on their websites to make sure you are doing it right. Florida I know is a tricky one.
