Primary source: Oklahoma Board of Dentistry — official site. Requirements on this page are summarised from the Board's published rules — always confirm the current rules at the source.
For Oklahoma the Oklahoma Board of Dentistry is the authority, and 40 hours per two-year CE reporting period (the licence itself renews annually on 31 December) 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).
The board attaches named requirements beyond the total — these are the ones that catch people at audit:
- A live, in-person CPR class each reporting period (online CPR does not qualify)
- An ethics course each reporting period
- Hours are logged in CE Broker — the current reporting period runs 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2027
- No more than 20 of the 40 may be completed online — live interactive webinars may count as in-person at the Board's discretion
How free online courses slot in: recognised-provider courses (ADA CERP, AGD PACE) are the practical standard, and the free certificated platforms in this directory publish on exactly those recognitions. Spread across the cycle it’s roughly two certificated hours a month — a free lunchtime webinar habit retires the cycle with nothing spent.

Is CPR required?
