Canadian Performance Exam in Dental Hygiene™ (CPEDH™)


April 26-27, 2025

Application Open: January 24th 2025 at 12pm ET
Application deadline: February 28, 2025 at 11:59pm PT

Applicants from non-accredited schools who have been granted equivalency and have passed the National Dental Hygiene Certification Examination™ (NDHCE™), must also successfully complete the Canadian Performance Examination in Dental Hygiene™ (CPEDH™) before they can register to practice in most provinces. Individuals should check with the Regulator in the province in which they wish to register to confirm their requirements to practice.

Optional Clinic Orientation: Applicants have the option to also participate in a clinic orientation on April 25, 2025, prior to the exam. This is optional. It is not an opportunity to practice your skills nor is it a clinical refresher. It is meant to provide an opportunity for applicants see the exam space and the equipment to be used prior to the exam days.

NOTE: You will need to log in to complete the transaction. If you do not already have an account, you will need to create one. You can confirm whether or not you have an account by trying the 'Forgot Password' option on the login pop-up.

​CPEDH™ Application Fee: $2,730 +tax
