A diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College (AVDC) or EVDC is a veterinarian who has been certified as having demonstrated specialist knowledge and expertise in veterinary dentistry. In order to qualify, they must complete all training requirements and successfully pass an examination; only then can they be considered veterinary dentists (specialists in veterinary dentistry) and practice veterinary dentistry at a specialist level.

Specialization in the veterinary medical profession can be species‐ or discipline‐oriented. At this level, the European and American Boards of Veterinary Specialization (EBVS and ABVS) provide a common umbrella to assure a homogenous postgraduate education to veterinarians who want to become specialists. Like the AVDC in North America, the EVDC is a transversely recognized institution.
