Diplomate Award

The Foundation for Endodontics and Cornerstone Dental Specialties understand the time and effort required for an endodontist to become a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics (ABE). Board certification demonstrates superior endodontic knowledge and skill, dedication to professional growth, and patient care commitment. Beyond the personal satisfaction of board certification, the process is integral to maintaining endodontics as a recognized specialty with the National Commission on Recognition of Dental Specialties and Certifying Boards.   

The Foundation values the personal sacrifice made by endodontists who are committed to achieving their best while securing the future of the specialty. As an expression of gratitude, we proudly announce the Cornerstone Dental Specialties & Foundation for Endodontics New Diplomate Award!  

Each eligible Diplomate will receive a one-time $500 award, payable upon completion of the application process. Review the program guidelines for more information. Email grants.foundation@aae.org with questions. 

Deadline for application: No later than December 31, annually
