In order to be considered a pediatric dentist, one must complete four years of dental training at an accredited U.S. dental school, and another three years of specialty training in an accredited pediatric dentistry program.
In order to achieve ABPD (American Board of Pediatric Dentistry) board certification, a pediatric dentist must first successfully complete the aforementioned training, and then must go through the rigorous process of completing the requirements to become board-certified.
