If the case was dismissed then you have to go to the DMV and ask for your license back.

It depends. The DMV handles your license independently from court. Chances are you never requested a DMV hearing.

If you did not have an administrative hearing at the DMV or you lost the administrative hearing you were probably entitled to a new hearing when your case was dropped. If the DMV proceeded with your case as a refusal your license was suspended for a year with no restricted/provisional license.

If you license was revoked for refusing a breathalyzer, you would have had to request a hearing by the deadline. If you did not, your license will be revoked. You can try to get a hardship license.
