ABSTRACT
In 2017, the directors of the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) decided to move forward with a new clinical examination format-a scenario-based examination. The first examination of this type was administered in February 2019, and 2 more exams have been given since then. Each examination consisted of at least 6 scenarios with 4-7 questions for each scenario. Questions came from 4 domains or categories-data gathering and diagnosis, treatment objectives and planning, treatment implementation and management, and critical analysis and outcomes assessment. As of today, 49% of members of the American Association of Orthodontists are ABO certified. For more information about the scenario-based examination and ABO certification or certification renewal processes, go to AmericanBoardOrtho.com.
