Answer: Applications for dental, dental hygiene and dental therapy licensure are completed through our online application portal. Please click here to navigate to the applications page: https://www.oregon.gov/dentistry/Pages/apply-license.aspx
Applications for sedation permits, expanded practice permits and restorative functions endorsements must be printed and mailed along with a cashier's check/money order for the required fee to the following address:
Oregon Board of Dentistry
Unit 23
PO Box 4395
Portland, OR 97208-4395
Local anesthesia and certification as a specialist endorsement applications do not require a fee, and may be uploaded directly to the licensure application under the 'supplemental documents' tab.
Please note that UPS and FEDEX do not deliver to PO Boxes. If you use one of these delivery services, they convert the address from the PO Box to our physical street address. The application packet will be returned to the applicant as the Board cannot accept monies at the Board's physical street address.
