Colorado specifics

Colorado dentists are licensed by the Colorado Dental Board, which operates under the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA). DORA's shared lookup tool covers dentists, hygienists, and most other regulated health professions in one search.

How to spot disciplinary actions in Colorado

DORA's licensee lookup shows final agency actions directly on the record, but formal complaints in progress are not public — call the board if you need more current information than the record shows.

What to look for

  • Status: Active, Inactive, Expired, Suspended, or Revoked
  • License type: Dentist (DDS/DMD), dental specialty permit, or dental hygienist
  • Disciplinary actions: consent orders, probation, fines, or restrictions
  • Office address on file: match against the practice you plan to visit

Frequently asked questions

How do I verify a dentist's license in Colorado?

Use the Colorado Dental Board online license lookup. Search by the dentist's last name or license number, then review status, issue date, and any disciplinary actions.

Where is the official Colorado dentist license lookup?

The official lookup is hosted by the Colorado Dental Board at https://apps.colorado.gov/dora/licensing/Lookup/LicenseLookup.aspx.

What does it mean if a Colorado dentist's license is "inactive" or "expired"?

An inactive or expired license means the dentist is not currently authorized to practice in Colorado. They cannot legally provide dental care until the license is renewed or reinstated.

Does Colorado publish dentist disciplinary actions?

Yes. The Colorado Dental Board publishes board orders and disciplinary actions on its website, and they appear on the licensee's record in the license lookup tool.

Is the federal NPI Registry the same as a Colorado dental license?

No. The federal NPI Registry (NPPES) confirms a provider's federal identifier, but state licensure is what authorizes practice in Colorado. Verify both for full confidence.
