What is a Board Certified Veterinary Specialist?
The increased sophistication of veterinary medicine and increasingly important role of pets in our society has resulted
in the emergence of a number of veterinary specialties comparable to those in human medicine (e.g., cardiologist,
radiologists, surgeons, internists, dermatologists and dentists). Dentistry is one of more than 20 specialties currently
recognized by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).

Specialty certification requires completing 3 to 6 years of training in the area of specialization beyond the Doctor of
Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree. Requirements vary among individual “specialty colleges” but all candidates must
pass advanced credential requirements approved by the AVMA. In addition to comprehensive training in the area of
expertise, a veterinarian must submit credentials of expertise to a review board in the specialty college. Following
acceptance of the credentials, an extensive written and practical examination must be successfully completed before
being acknowledged as a specialist.

When these requirements have been met, the applicant is then designated as a “Board Certified Specialist” or
“Diplomate” of the respective specialty college. Veterinary dentistry specialty candidates who complete this process
can then use the well earned titles,
Diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College, Board Certified
Veterinary Dentist, Veterinary Dentist
and Veterinary Dental Specialist.
