Frequently asked questions

How do I verify a dentist's license in New Mexico?

Use the New Mexico Board of Dental Health Care 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 New Mexico dentist license lookup?

The official lookup is hosted by the New Mexico Board of Dental Health Care at https://nmrldlpi.my.site.com/public/s/license-lookup.

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

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

Does New Mexico publish dentist disciplinary actions?

Yes. The New Mexico Board of Dental Health Care 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 New Mexico dental license?

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