For Delaware the Delaware Board of Dentistry and Dental Hygiene is the authority, and 50 hours per biennial renewal is the figure to plan around — spread across the cycle it’s roughly two certificated hours a month (figures drawn from published summaries of the Board’s rules — always confirm current requirements with the Board before relying on them).
Watch the specifics as much as the total — Delaware's standing expectations:
- A two-hour infection control course each cycle
- Up to 30 of the 50 may be home study
How free online courses slot in: the major free platforms in this directory publish under ADA CERP and AGD PACE recognition, which is the currency most state rules trade in. Spread across the cycle it’s roughly two certificated hours a month, so a regular free webinar slot in the diary carries the cycle comfortably.

Frequently asked questions
How many CE hours do Delaware dentists need?
50 hours per biennial renewal, under the Delaware Board of Dentistry and Dental Hygiene. Format and category parameters sit in the Board’s rule — confirm the current text before relying on a plan.
Do free online courses count in Delaware?
Yes — recognised-provider online courses are accepted within the rule’s format parameters (up to 30 of the 50 may be home study), and the free certificated platforms in this directory can carry a large share of a biennial cycle.
Is CPR required?
Most boards expect current CPR/BLS certification as a standing matter — Delaware’s current rule text is the place to confirm the exact wording and format before your renewal.
Do I submit certificates at renewal?
Generally you attest at renewal and keep records for audit — one dated folder of certificates per year is the system that survives an audit letter. Check whether your board uses CE Broker or its own reporting portal.
