Board Certification - What It
Means
Dr. Fagundes has been in private
practice for the past fourteen years
mastering his technique through
experience and continuing his
education. His thirst for knowledge
and his passion for his profession
motivated Dr. Fagundes to complete
the rigorous requirements to become
Board-Certified in 2001.
Dr. Fagundes is a Diplomate of
the American Board of Endodontics.
He is also a member of the American
Association of Endodontists, the
American Dental Association, and the
Georgia Dental Association.
Board Certification is the
highest level of achievement in
Endodontics. Less than one-third of
Endodontists are Board-Certified. We
hope that this further instills your
confidence in our office. Dr.
Fagundes is the only Board-Certified
Endodontist in the LaGrange, Newnan,
and Columbus area.
A Board-Certified Endodontist has
satisfied all requirements of the
Board Certification process of the
American Board of Endodontics (ABE).
This individual is a Diplomate of
the American Board of Endodontics.
ABE Diplomate status is awarded
to qualified endodontists who have
demonstrated diagnostic skill,
clinical proficiency, and
professional judgment of a level
that ensures the highest quality of
care for patients. They have taken
an examination administered by a
panel of experts of their peers and
have demonstrated an exemplary level
of knowledge, understanding, and
clinical expertise in Endodontics.
Three exams over several years are
completed which include a written
exam, case submissions and finally
an oral examination conducted by the
Directors of the ABE. All of these
must be completed satisfactorily
within a specific timeframe.
Dr. Fagundes received his
Diplomate status in 2001, and was
recognized at the American
Association of Endodontists Annual
Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana
in April 2001. He is thrilled to
have achieved this milestone in his
profession.
