In the event any licensed dentist fails to notify the board of any change in the address of his place of practice within the time prescribed by this section, the board shall not renew such person’s license until the penalty fixed by this chapter is paid. An applicant for renewal of a license to practice dentistry shall specify in his application whether he has changed the address of his place of practice, and if so, the date of such change, and the board may accept such statement as evidence of such fact.
