The Importance of Board Certification

Most people are unaware of the importance or the time that is required to receive board certification status.

Dr. Robert Thein is a diplomate on the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry (ABOI/ID).

“ABOI/ID Diplomate designation symbolizes the highest level of competence in implant dentistry. Certification by the ABOI/ID attests to the fact that a dentist has demonstrated knowledge, ability, and proficiency in implant dentistry through a rigorous examination process.”

What is actually required to become a diplomate:

• Completion of a very tough written and oral examination.
• Evidence of an active dental license.
• 6 or more years of experience in the practice of implant dentistry.
• Submission of 10 cases that show excellent, diligent practice in all areas of implant dentistry.

The entire process is lengthy and rigorous – sometimes taking dentists up to 10 years to finally receive the prowess of diplomate status amongst the organization.
