Vision
The Vision of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry is to achieve excellence in pediatric dentistry through certification of all pediatric dentists.
Mission Statement
The ABPD certifies pediatric dentists based on standards of excellence that lead to high quality oral health care for infants, children, adolescents, and patients with special health care needs. Certification by the ABPD provides assurance to the public that a pediatric dentist has successfully completed accredited training and a voluntary examination process designed to continually validate the knowledge, skills, and experience requisite to the delivery of quality patient care.
Core Values
Excellence in Pediatric Dental Care
The ABPD values the provision of the highest quality dental care for children. Such dental care is thoughtful, careful, ethical and based on the most recent scientific evidence. It takes into account the best interest of the patient and their parent.
A Fair and Valid Examination
The ABPD values a fair and valid testing process for board certification and renewal of certification in Pediatric Dentistry. Such a testing process is based on the most recent knowledge in professional and educational testing. It is continuously evaluated to insure that it is of the highest quality and accurately assesses the candidate's knowledge, skill and judgment. The process requires skilled, committed and adequately trained examiners.
A Commitment to Lifelong Learning
The ABPD values a health professional's commitment to lifelong learning. It values candidates' and diplomates' desire to practice pediatric dentistry at the highest level and their commitment to constantly reevaluate their practice in light of the most recent scientific evidence. It recognizes the value of renewal of certification and continuing education for health professionals.
Quality Assurance in Health Care
The ABPD values quality assurance in health care through objective assessment of outcomes and process. It supports efforts to provide the highest standard of health care to children.
