Which of the following is NOT a mandatory course for RDA license renewal?

  1. Infection Control

  2. Basic Life Support

  3. Ethics in Dentistry

  4. California Dental Practice Act

The correct answer is: Ethics in Dentistry

The correct response highlights that "Ethics in Dentistry" is not classified as a mandatory course for the renewal of an RDA license. In the context of RDA continuing education, certain subjects such as Infection Control, Basic Life Support, and the California Dental Practice Act are typically required to ensure that practitioners are well-equipped with essential knowledge and skills critical for patient safety and compliance with legal standards. While understanding ethics is undoubtedly important in dental practice, it does not have the same regulatory requirement for course completion compared to the other topics mentioned. Therefore, the absence of a mandate for an ethics course supports the selection of this answer.
