Mississippi specifics

Mississippi dentists are licensed by the Mississippi State Board of Dental Examiners, a standalone board that also credentials dental hygienists and dental assistants.

How to spot disciplinary actions in Mississippi

The board publishes disciplinary actions and consent orders on its own site — a separate step from the basic license verification search.

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 Mississippi?

Use the Mississippi State Board of Dental Examiners 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 Mississippi dentist license lookup?

The official lookup is hosted by the Mississippi State Board of Dental Examiners at https://msbde.ms.gov/license-verification/.

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

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

Does Mississippi publish dentist disciplinary actions?

Yes. The Mississippi State Board of Dental Examiners 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 Mississippi dental license?

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