Notice
of Re-Examination Requirements for Hygienists
Any person applying for a Kansas license by examination as a dental hygienist must have passed the clinical boards. Kansas accepts CRDTS, WREB, NERB, SRTA or any other state's clinical exam.
If you do not successfully complete all sections of the clinical exam on the first trial, you only need to re-take those sections of the examination you previously failed.
If you fail the clinical exam the second time, you will have to retake the entire exam for a third time. You are required to notify the Kansas Dental Board for approval to take remedial training before you take the exam the third time. (K.S.A. 65-1429)
After the third trial the board, within its discretion, may deny the applicant another examination.
