The Examination Committee was formed to ensure the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry’s examinations test the Candidates’ in-depth knowledge of the specialty of pediatric dentistry. Subcommittee member appointments are based on expertise, needs of the Examination Committee and individual preference. Depending on the assignment, members develop items for the Qualifying or Renewal of Certification Examinations, assist in the development of vignettes for the Oral Clinical Examination, or the Continuous Quality Improvement modules for the Renewal of Certification Process. Subcommittee members are eligible to serve as examiners for the Oral Clinical Examination, if needed and invited.
