About
Welcome to the pediatric dental study guide. We are a team of volunteer American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (ABPD)- certified & ABPD-candidate pediatric dentists who want to inform our colleagues and students about some of the most common conditions that we may encounter in our careers. We are a mix of private practice and educator pediatric dentists.
While the amount of information in these guides is vast and we make every effort to be as current and thorough as possible, the information cannot be taken as a reference manual or textbook. Please be advised that the content here is meant for educational purposes only. The information presented is offered for educational and informational purposes only, and should not be construed as medical or dental advice. You are responsible for what you do with this information and we encourage you to use your best clinical judgement and reference current literature.
