How Rhode Island Dental Assistant (registered/expanded function) license verification works

A Dental Assistant (registered/expanded function) in Rhode Island is licensed by the RI 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.

Board note: RIDOH 'Dental': Dentist (DEN#####), Dental Hygienist / Public Health Dental Hygienist; RI licenses only Maxillofacial Surgery Dental Assistants (dental_assistant maps to that type).
