Frequently asked questions

How do I verify a dentist's license in West Virginia?

Use the West Virginia Board of Dentistry 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 West Virginia dentist license lookup?

The official lookup is hosted by the West Virginia Board of Dentistry at https://wvbd.glsuite.us/GLSuiteWeb/Clients/WVBOD/Public/Verification/Search.aspx.

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

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

Does West Virginia publish dentist disciplinary actions?

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