How New York Dental Hygienist license verification works

A Dental Hygienist in New York is licensed by the NY Dental Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Dentist and Dental Hygienist Compact and multistate Dental Hygienist licenses
