15 years of Accreditation

The summer of 2010 will mark 15 years since Dr.s Linda & Chip Steel passed the Accreditation Exams given by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.  At that time, Drs. Linda & Chip became the first and only husband and wife dentists to achieve Accredited status through the AACD (hopefully not the last) and among the first 200 total in the world..  The AACD is a wordwide organization (over 70 countries) dedicated to the Art and Science of Cosmetic Dentistry.

Following their Accreditation, Drs. Linda and Chip were asked to be on the Board of Examiners, which is the group that evaluates the work of Dentist candidates for Accreditation.  They served on the Board of Examiners for 10 years.  In addition, Drs. Steel served for many years in various capacities for the AACD including the Board of Directors, the Charitable Foundation, the publications and the Board of Governors, which was the basis for the American Board of Cosmetic Dentistry (see details in our “Meet Drs. Steel” section of this site).

After all of these years, Drs. Linda and Chip still enjoy creating beautiful smiles and attending continuing education events with the AACD as well as other dental organizations.   15 years, thousands of smiles and counting  …..
