NEW YORK CITY: The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) offers cosmetic dentistry’s most recognized advanced credentialing program for dentists and dental laboratory technicians. The American Board of Cosmetic Dentistry, the credentialing authority of the AACD, recently announced that all dentists and dental laboratory technicians are now eligible to pursue AACD Accreditation regardless of their membership status within the AACD.
This change underscores AACD’s dedication to inclusiveness and standards of excellence, thus providing patients greater access to Accredited dental professionals who have demonstrated a very high level of clinical skill and ability in cosmetic dentistry.
The AACD is the world’s largest non-profit membership organization focused on providing cosmetic dental information, knowledge and credentialing for the dental profession and the public.
“Everyone wins when standards are held high and support and training is made available to many,” said AACD Accredited Fellow Member and ABCD Board Member Bradley J. Olson, DDS. “The Accreditation process is an opportunity for dentists and dental laboratory technicians to truly gauge their skill set and expand their skills to a higher level.”
Accreditation in the AACD serves to set standards for excellence in cosmetic dentistry. Accreditation is a three-part process, consisting of a written examination, submission of clinical case examinations for evaluation, and an oral examination.
Requirements for accreditation candidates will be identical for members and non-members. Non-members will be required to follow the AACD advertising guidelines, and will be subject to a different fee structure than AACD members.
The AACD is the world’s largest non-profit membership organization dedicated to advancing excellence in comprehensive oral care that combines art and science to optimally improve dental health, esthetics, and function. Composed of more than 6,000 cosmetic dental professionals in 70 countries around the globe, the AACD fulfills its mission by offering superior educational opportunities, promoting and supporting a respected accreditation credential, serving as a user-friendly and inviting forum for the creative exchange of knowledge and ideas, and providing accurate and useful information to the public and the profession.
