Where must an applicant apply to obtain their radiographic certification in Arizona?

In Arizona, the process for obtaining radiographic certification is specifically governed by the state's regulatory authority, which is the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners. This Board is responsible for overseeing the licensure and certification of dental professionals within the state, including ensuring that applicants meet the necessary educational and training requirements to safely and effectively perform radiographic procedures. By applying to this regulatory body, applicants ensure they follow the established state laws and regulations regarding dental practices and the use of radiography.

Other options such as the American Dental Association or a national dental organization may provide resources or certification opportunities, but they do not have the authority to grant radiographic certification specific to Arizona's regulations. Local dental practices can be involved in the training of applicants, but they do not have the authority to issue certifications. Therefore, the correct avenue for obtaining the necessary certification is through the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners.
