Policy Statement
All dentists enrolled in an Advanced Education Clinical Program must be credentialed by the North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners within two months of the effective start date of their program. The credentialing requirements of the North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners are listed on the Board's License & Permits webpage. Students may seek an extension of this deadline by submitting an appeal, in writing, to the Dean of the Adams School of Dentistry prior to the expiration of the two-month deadline.
All dentists enrolled in an Advanced Education Clinical program at the Adams School of Dentistry must maintain a valid North Carolina dental license or intern permit (or, for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery residents, a valid medical license) for the duration of their enrollment in the Advanced Education Clinical program in order to exercise clinical privileges and be appointed as a graduate teaching assistant. Failure to maintain a valid intern permit or dental (medical) license will result in the immediate revocation of clinical privileges and graduate teaching assistant appointment.
