The American Board of Periodontology

What does it mean to be a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology?

The American Board of Periodontology is the governing body for the specialty of Periodontics in the United States (www.perio.org) . Upon graduation from an accredited post-graduate program in Periodontics, one can voluntarily appear for an oral and written exam administered by the American Board of Periodontology. After a meticulous peer-review process, the successful candidate is considered as ‘Board Certified’ and conferred the title of ‘Diplomate, American Board of Periodontology’ which represents the highest standard of training as a Periodontist. To the best of our knowledge, Dr.Bhatavadekar is currently the only US Board Certified Periodontist to be practicing in India. Recently, Dr.Bhatavadekar was honored as a Fellow of the International Team for Implantology (ITI, Switzerland), an organization for dental surgeons specializing in dental implants. This makes Dr.Bhatavadekar the only ITI Fellow from India.
