Board Certified Pediatric Dentist – Marietta, East Cobb, Kennesaw, Roswell, Atlanta 678-813-3202
Dr. Herrin is pleased to be a diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. In order to be Board Certified, a pediatric dentist not only has to complete a pediatric dental residency program after dental school but also has to complete a board certification process. This process is not easy and takes over a year to complete. The first part of this process is passing a lengthy written exam that tests over clinical and scientific aspects of pediatric dentistry. After passing this written test, a candidate must then sign up a year later to take an oral exam that tests over different clinical case scenarios.
Dr. Herrin is pleased to say that he is board-certified. He is confident that his vast knowledge of the pediatric dental literature will help him to perform high quality dental care to his patients by not only knowing what to do in different situations but also why to do it. Feel free to ask Dr. Herrin any questions you may have when calling or visiting the office.
