The content of the examination reflects the broad scope and
scientific basis for prosthodontics. The certification examination reflects,
but is not limited to, the Commission of Dental Accreditation (CODA) Standards
for Advanced Specialty Education Programs in Prosthodontics. Current standards
may be found at https://www.ada.org/en/ coda/current-accreditation standards.
In addition to these areas, questions from current professional literature in
prosthodontics and related clinical, laboratory and basic sciences contribute
to the ABP test item database.
Candidates are provided four (4) hours to complete the
Section A examination, which typically consists of two hundred (200)
multiple-choice questions that may require review of images, diagrams, or short
videos appearing with the questions.
