22 Tex. Admin. Code § 101.5 - Staggered Dental Registrations
(a) The
Board, pursuant to the Occupations Code, Chapter 257, §257.001, Texas
Civil Statutes has established a staggered license registration system
comprised of initial dental license registration periods followed by biennial
registrations (i.e., renewals).
(b)
The initial, staggered dental license registration periods will range from 18
months to 30 months. The length of the initial license registration period will
be determined by the licensee's birth month, but will be no less than 18
months. The expiration of the initial license will be based on the licensee's
birth month. Initial dental license fees will be prorated according to the
number of months of the initial license period.
(c) Prior to the expiration date of the
initial dental license registration period, a license renewal notice will be
mailed to all dental licensees who have that expiration date.
(d) A license registration expired for one
year or more may not be renewed.
(e) An initial license expires on the 30th
day after the date the license is issued if the holder of the license fails to
pay the required license fee on or before that date.
(f) In conjunction with the license renewal,
the licensee must provide any information requested by the Board pursuant to
§254.019(b) of the Dental Practice Act. If a licensee fails to comply with
this subsection, then the licensee is subject to disciplinary action, which
includes administrative fines and public disciplinary sanctions.
