You should refer to applicable state expungment law. You can begin the search online. You may need to speak with an attorney.
Additional: Rather than saying "may need to" I would recommend DEFINITELY speaking with one. The expungement process is not exactly a do-it-yourself project - and in addition you will have to find out if your particular state will even grant the expunction of such offenses.
Expunged doesn't have anything to do with it specifically. You can, under some circumstances have your rights restored, depending on what the charge was, and if it was a state felon and not a federal one.
A felon with an expunged record can get a dental hygienist license in California. When someone is expunged it is erased so it will not longer be on your record.

Have your record expunged or the conviction overturned.
Getting a felony expunged doesn't make it go away - it simply limits access to that record. A felon with an expunged record is still a felon, and is still prohibited from purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms and/or ammunition. That's a federal law, and it does not vary between states.
It depends, but the basic answer is no. The more complicated answer is, the term "ex-felon" is almost always misused. Once you are a felon, you are ALWAYS a felon, unless the charged are reversed and removed from your record because you are later found to be innocent. Even if the charges have been expunged, you are still a felon. Expunged simply means the charges are no longer visible on your public record. If you went to prison and got released, you are still a felon. Felons can sometimes have their rights restored, but again, they are still a felon.
Yes, you are still a convicted felon, even after completing probation. You must get the conviction expunged to restore your rights.
It depends on what you mean. There is really no such thing as a "ex felon." A felon can sometimes get his rights restored or get the felony expunged from his record, or both, but a felon who has not had his rights restored cannot possess a firearm at all.
