National Dental Board Affiliation: Dr. DeSenze has just completed his third year as a National Dental Board Examiner with the CDCA. The CDCA (The Commission on Dental Competency Assessments) is the organization that that tests graduating Dental Students and Dental Hygiene students. Students must pass a rigorous clinical patient oriented exam to be granted a License to practice their profession when they graduate from their professional schools. Without this license they can not enter the public sector to provide Dental care to patients. Dr DeSenze and other CDCA examiners are actively present on the clinic floor to oversee and actually grade each student on their clinical performance. The students compile a grade based on different aspects with emphasis on quality of care, that grade then determines whether they are granted licensure to practice Dentistry.
