How Virginia Dental Hygienist license verification works
A Dental Hygienist in Virginia is licensed by the VA 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.
Fields returned for this board: license_number name occupation status issued expires address public_information.
Board note: VA-DHP: Virginia Interactive license lookup; GET /Lookup/Detail/<10-digit no.> direct, name search POST per occupation; no DOB; 'Additional Public Information' flags enforcement documents (never auto-fail). Primary source per the page.

Dentist and Dental Hygienist Compact and multistate Dental Hygienist licenses
Dental Hygienist licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the Dentist and Dental Hygienist Compact. When the Virginia record shows a multistate license, the result includes multistate: true and the privilege states. Privilege status is confirmed at the compact's own lookup, never inferred.
