How often must a Florida dentist renew their license?

• A. Every year.
• B. Every five years.
• C. On a cycle, commonly every two years.
• D. Only when fees are due.

Answer: (C)

Licenses in Florida are issued on a two-year cycle. The dentist’s license stays active for two years and must be renewed before it expires, with continuing education and the renewal fee typically required as part of that process. This makes renewal occur every two years, not annually or every five years, and it isn’t something you can skip until fees become due—the license must be renewed to stay in good standing.
