New Zealand Veterinary Dentistry
ABOUT US
New Zealand Veterinary Dentistry is owned and operated by Dr. Crystal Loh, BSc, DVM, MANZCVS, DAVDC. Dr. Loh is a fully board certified veterinary dentist with the American Veterinary Dental College. Veterinary dentistry is a specialty recognised by the American Veterinary Medical Association.
Board certification is obtained through an intensive, three to six year residency program following which a candidate must submit and pass all credential requirements set by the specialty college. This is followed by rigorous written and practical examinations that are conducted and based in the United States of America, which upon passing the candidate is conferred the qualification of Diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College.
Board certification is a specialist title and can only be obtained through the American Veterinary Dental College (AVDC) and the European Veterinary Dental College (EVDC) through structured training programs in all disciplines of Dentistry & Maxillofacial Surgery, which includes cross-disciplinary specialty training (Anaesthesia, Surgery & Radiology), and intensive examination. This differs from Membership which is obtained within the Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists, which is not a specialty degree.
