In Wyoming, CE sits with the Wyoming Board of Dental Examiners: the headline figure is 16 hours per two-year CE period (due 31 December of odd years) — spread across the cycle it’s about one certificated hour a month (figures drawn from published summaries of the Board’s rules — always confirm current requirements with the Board before relying on them).
Beyond the raw number, Wyoming names specific obligations worth diarising:
- Three of the 16 hours must relate to the responsible prescribing of controlled substances (a statutory requirement the Board cannot waive)
- You attest to completion at renewal and keep evidence for random audit — the Board does not pre-approve courses
- Courses must be clinical in nature — the Board will not accept practice-building or business-management content
On free online CE specifically: ADA CERP and AGD PACE recognition is what the free certificated platforms here are built on, and it is what boards look for. Spread across the cycle it’s about one certificated hour a month — treat it as a routine rather than a deadline and the requirement takes care of itself.

Frequently asked questions
How many CE hours do Wyoming dentists need?
16 hours per two-year CE period (due 31 December of odd years), under the Wyoming Board of Dental Examiners. 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 Wyoming?
Yes — recognised-provider online courses are accepted within the rule’s format parameters (courses must be clinical in nature — the Board will not accept practice-building or business-management content), 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 — Wyoming’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.
