Section 631.170 - Placement of license on inactive, retired or disabled status; reinstatement1. A licensee may request the Board to place his or her license in an inactive or retired status. Such a request must be made in writing and before the license expires.2. The Secretary-Treasurer may reinstate an inactive license upon the written request of an inactive licensee who has maintained an active license and practice outside this State during the time his or her Nevada license was inactive. To reinstate the license, such an inactive licensee must:(a) Pay the appropriate renewal fees;(b) Provide a list of his or her employment during the time the license was inactive;(c) Report all claims of unprofessional conduct or professional incompetence against him or her or any violation of the law which he or she may have committed, including administrative disciplinary charges brought by any other jurisdiction;(d) Report whether he or she has been held civilly or criminally liable in this State, another state or territory of the United States or the District of Columbia for misconduct relating to his or her occupation or profession;(e) Report any appearance he or she may have made before a peer review committee;(f) Submit proof of his or her completion of an amount of continuing education, prorated as necessary, for the year in which the license is restored to active status;(g) Provide certification from each jurisdiction in which he or she currently practices that his or her license is in good standing and that no proceedings which may affect that standing are pending;(h) Satisfy the Secretary-Treasurer that he or she is of good moral character; and(i) Provide any other information which the Secretary-Treasurer may require, before the license may be reinstated. In determining whether the licensee is of good moral character, the Secretary-Treasurer may consider whether the license to practice dentistry in another state has been suspended or revoked or whether the licensee is currently involved in any disciplinary action concerning the license in that state.3. If a person whose license has been on inactive status for less than 2 years has not maintained an active license or practice outside this State, or if a person's license has been on retired status for less than 2 years, he or she must submit to the Board:(a) Payment of the appropriate renewal fees;(b) A written petition for reinstatement that has been signed and notarized;(c) Proof of his or her completion of an amount of continuing education, prorated as necessary, for the year in which the license is restored to active status; and(d) A list of his or her employment, if any, during the time the license was on inactive or retired status, before the license may be reinstated.4. If a person whose license has been on inactive status for 2 years or more has not maintained an active license or practice outside this State, or if a person's license has been on retired status for 2 years or more, he or she must: (a) Satisfy the requirements set forth in paragraphs (a) to (d), inclusive, of subsection 3; and(b) Pass such additional examinations for licensure as the Board may prescribe, before the license may be reinstated.5. If the license of a person has been placed on disabled status, the person must: (a) Satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of subsection 3;(b) Submit to the Board a list of his or her employment, if any, during the time the license was on disabled status;(c) Pass such additional examinations for licensure as the Board may prescribe; and(d) Submit to the Board a statement signed by a licensed physician setting forth that the person is able, mentally and physically, to practice dentistry, before the license may be reinstated.Nev.
