The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry® (AACD) is dedicated to advancing excellence in the art and science of comprehensive cosmetic dentistry and encouraging the highest standards of ethical conduct and responsible patient care.

The AACD offers superior educational opportunities; promotes and supports a respected Accreditation credential; serves as a user-friendly and inviting forum for the creative exchange of knowledge and ideas; and provides accurate and useful information to the public and the profession.

The AACD includes dental professionals, laboratory technicians, educators, and researchers from 70 countries worldwide. This global perspective allows AACD members to gather information from the international field of cosmetic dentistry.

With the formation of the Accreditation and Fellowship Programs, the AACD began offering the most stringent and respected postgraduate certification in cosmetic dentistry to both dentists and laboratory technicians. Accreditation, the Journal of Cosmetic Dentistry, and AACD's cutting-edge Annual Scientific Session have solidified the Academy's position as the leading cosmetic dental organization in the world. AACD members are recognized as professionals dedicated to constant improvement of their skills and knowledge and to making the life-changing benefits of cosmetic dentistry available to more people every year.

Fellowship (AAACD) vs. Membership:

The Path Less Traveled

Cosmetic dentists in Colorado reveal their best image and brag about their American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry membership. However, simply being a member through payment of annual dues differs substantially from the full Accredited status (FAACD).

The AACD accreditation is the highest achievement that can be given to a cosmetic dentist by the AACD. The process consists of rigorous written and oral exams, participation in the accreditation workshops, and submitting specific cosmetic casework for a careful & professional evaluation by AACD experts.

Only the most skillful cosmetic cases that embody the AACD's mission and standards can pass the Accreditation test. The initials "FAACD" after Dr. Maggie's name signify her immense commitment to the art of cosmetic dentistry. They reflect her dedication to excellence and her choice to take The Path Less Traveled.
