Sec. 08.36.250. - Renewal of registration.

(a) At least 60 days before expiration of a licensee's registration certificate, the department shall mail a form for renewal of registration to each licensed dentist. A licensee who wishes to renew a license shall complete the form and return it with the appropriate fee and evidence of continued professional competence as required by the board. The department shall, as soon as practicable, issue a registration certificate valid for a stated number of years. A licensee shall keep the registration certificate beside or attached to the licensee's license. Failure to receive the registration form does not exempt a licensee from renewing registration.

(b) When applying for license renewal, a dentist shall report to the board each instance during the prior registration period in which the quality of the licensee's professional services was the subject of legal action.
