Does anyone know where I can find a list of states that will license foreign trained dentists who already have a license in one state (who have not done an IDP or advanced education program) I know California will license foreign trained dentists after 5 years of practicing in another state...does anyone know which other states have similar programs? Thanks

Hey Katie !
I am not quite sure if such list exists or not, but I am pretty sure that what you should be looking for is states that license by "reciprocation" and not by "credentials".
Your best shot would be contacting each state board of the state of which you are seeking licensure (as I previously did). They should be able to give you a more precise answer.
Al I can help you out with is a link to all US state board contact info. ;
