Pediatric Dentist Requirements in Illinois

Illinois licenses pediatric dentists as dentists first, so the state's dentist licensure rules apply β€” and Illinois also issues a separate specialty license, and a dentist may not hold out as a specialist without it.

Check its requirements with the Illinois Board of Dentistry.
