The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) is happy to recognize the efforts that six dental professionals have demonstrated as they dedicated themselves to continuing their education and bringing the highest level of responsible care to their patients by becoming credentialed by the AACD.

AACD Accredited status is an honor that’s achieved after completion of a rigorous credentialing process which includes a written examination, the submission of clinical cases for peer-reviewed examination, and an oral examination. The process was developed by the AACD and is the most recognized advanced credentialing program across the globe. The goal of the AACD Accreditation process is to keep the doors of education open and encourage interactions with like-minded colleagues for constant professional growth and to create a foundation of support and collaboration.

The newly Accredited Members are: Ethan D. Harris, DMD, AAACD; Brett Reeve, DDS, AAACD; Diana Tadros, DDS, AAACD; Petteri Viljakainen, DDS, AAACD; Dawn Wehking, DDS, AAACD; Camille J. Zelen, DDS, AAACD.

The time and commitment that is required to complete the Accreditation process demonstrates a true dedication to the profession and to bringing the utmost in responsible care to their patients. It can lead to life-changing accomplishments and should be embraced by these driven individuals with pride and a deep sense of accomplishment. They have achieved a level of professional success in dentistry that is achieved by few, and we applaud their journey.

These newly Accredited professionals will be recognized at the 38th Annual AACD Scientific Session, April 27-30, in Orlando, Florida.
