Dehydration symptoms include: dizziness, dry mouth, excessive sweating, fatigue, extreme thirst, dark or strong smelling urine, or confusion. .

Stretch your legs, especially your calves, to help prevent cramping.

Article: The requirements to practice as an orthodontist varies from state to state. Most states only ask you to get a dental license, which allows you to practice general dentistry or a specialty, like orthodontics.

Contact your state's dental board to find out which license(s) you need before you can begin your practice. Find out what you need to qualify for a license. In most cases, you will need dental school transcripts, a passing score from a national or regional dental board exam, and completion of an orthodontic residency.

Even though you've already passed your DAT and NBDE, you still have to prove to the state that you meet their standards before you can practice. The exam varies from state to state. Contact your state dental board for information on the test's content and structure, and for guides to help you prepare. Once you pass the licensing exam, you can legally practice as an orthodontist in the state. If you move to a different state, you will have to repeat the licensing process. Some states will exempt you from the licensing exam if you passed it in another state, though.

You will have to take and pass an exam of 240 written questions, as well as a clinical exam. Certification expires every ten years. You must take and pass a renewal exam every decade to prove you are still able to practice at a high standard.
