Certificates of Knowledge Based Competence
* Please note that states may establish their own additional requirements to perform any dental-related functions. The purpose of this verification is only to verify that the individual has passed a DANB-administered exam. A certificate of knowledge-based competence does not expire.

DANB
exam results
are updated approximately weekly. DANB
certification results
are updated as DANB requirements are met by an individual and verified by DANB. If a dental assistant has taken and passed a DANB exam leading to a certificate of knowledge-based competence (e.g., Radiation Health and Safety, Infection Control or Coronal Polish) more than one time — to earn CDE credit, for example — only the most recently earned certificate will appear in the results. DANB attempts to keep this database current and accurate but takes no responsibility — and makes no representations, warranties or undertakings — regarding the currency or accuracy of the listed credentials of any individual dental assistant.
DANB developed this database solely for verification of dental assistants' credentials. DANB does not endorse or recommend any of the dental assistants listed hereon or their services.
DANB is the sole owner and maintainer of this website. No other sources, individuals or organizations can modify the data related to exam passing status, certification status or earned certificates of knowledge-based competence.
