Why prep with us

Most board prep sells one exam at a time and hasn't caught up with this year's changes. We started from the license.

  • Written for the 2026 exams

    CDCA‑WREB‑CITA merged into ADEX, the DLOSCE replaced the DSE OSCE and the NBDHE has a new outline. Our courses start from the exams as they are now.

  • One license, one price

    The License Packs cover every written and computer exam on the way to a dental or hygiene license, with 12 months of access.

  • 6 months, and pass or we extend

    Every course comes with 6 months of access. Reach the readiness target and don't pass, and we extend your access for free.

  • Know when you're ready

    Each course starts with a free readiness diagnostic, then an AI tutor and a plan that keep working on your weakest areas.

The usual order for a dentist trained in a CODA program

  1. 1

    INBDE

    The written exam every US state uses for dental licensure. Most students take it in their final year of dental school.

    INBDE Board Prep
  2. 2

    A clinical licensing exam: ADEX or CRDTS

    48 states and other jurisdictions accept or require ADEX, which now includes the DLOSCE on a computer and 5 manikin exams. Some states accept CRDTS or another route, such as a residency year.

    ADEX DLOSCE Prep
  3. 3

    Your state's law exam, if it has one

    Many states ask new licensees to pass a short exam on the state's dental practice act, often online. Your state board publishes the rules it covers.

  4. 4

    Apply to your state board

    With your exam results, the board usually asks for transcripts, a background check and current CPR or BLS. Each board lists its own requirements.

A general order, not legal advice. Every state board sets its own rules and accepts its own list of exams, so check the board where you want to practice before you register for anything.

How every question gets checked

AI drafts. A licensed dentist signs off every question before anyone sees it.

  1. 1

    Named sources

    We start from the exam's published outline, named textbooks and other published sources.

  2. 2

    AI first draft

    AI drafts the lesson or question from those sources.

  3. 3

    Disagreements flagged

    Where sources disagree, it's flagged for the reviewer.

  4. 4

    Licensed sign-off

    A licensed dentist reviews and signs off every question before anything is published.

  5. 5

    You can flag it

    Every lesson and question will have a “Something's wrong here” button.

  6. 6

    Re-checked each season

    When an exam owner updates its outline or manual, the affected questions are reviewed again.

Who's behind it

Accelerated Boards is part of Accelerated Dental Training, from the team behind Accelerated Assisting, a dental assisting school with campuses in Oregon. Every original question is written from published sources, never from recalled exam questions.

Common questions

Exam facts last checked October 2026.

  • When does enrollment open?
    In 2027, hygiene boards first and dental boards after. We haven't set a month yet. Everyone on the list gets an email when enrollment opens.
  • What does it cost?
    NBDHE Board Prep is $297, INBDE Board Prep $249, ADEX DLOSCE Prep $199, ADEX CSCE OSCE Review $59 and Local Anesthesia Written Review $39, each with 6 months of access. The Hygiene License Pack is $347 and the US Dental License Pack $397, each with 12 months. Pay in full, or over time with Affirm or Klarna at checkout.
  • What does pass or we extend mean?
    If you reach the readiness target in your course, sit the exam while your access is active and don't pass, send us your official result within 30 days. We'll extend your access by the length of your plan, free, as many times as you need.
  • Can I get a refund?
    You can get a full refund within 7 days of buying if you've used less than 10% of the course. After that, the pass-or-extend promise applies instead of refunds.
  • Are your questions from the real exams?
    No. Every question is original, written from the exam's published outline and named sources, and signed off by a licensed dentist. We never use questions recalled from a real exam.
  • Do you cover DANB or dental assisting exams?
    No. Assisting exam prep is at Accelerated Assisting.
  • I'm already a licensed hygienist. Is there anything for me?
    Yes, at Accelerated Hygiene: training for working hygienists, starting with First 90 Days RDH.
  • I run a dental office. Can I pay for a team member's prep?
    Yes, once enrollment opens. Offices that train with Accelerated Dental Training can add board prep for a new hire from their office account.
