This accreditation was not pursued for recognition. Dr. Pate earned it to ensure her patients receive dental care held to the highest clinical, functional, and cosmetic standards.
AACD Accreditation requires a comprehensive written examination, the delivery and extensive documentation of cosmetic treatment for multiple real patients, and an oral examination administered by the American Board of Cosmetic Dentistry. This process demonstrates an exceptional level of clinical skill and judgment and applies to the individual dentist, not the practice as a whole.
What this means for you, as a patient:
- Dental work performed with the finest materials and highest standards of care
- Treatment planned with full consideration of your bite, muscles, and jaw joint
- Restorations designed to last and function properly over time
- No compromise to speech, muscle comfort, or temporomandibular joint health
- Results that feel like your natural teeth and look refined and balanced
- Clear planning and communication so you know exactly what to expect before treatment begins
Dr. Pate’s training allows her to approach everything from a single restoration to crowns or veneers with the same level of precision and foresight.
Thoughtful Expertise. Steady Hands.
Dr. Yamileth Pate’s credentials reflect years of discipline and advanced study, but her care is defined by how it feels to be in her chair, unrushed, informed, and genuinely supported. Patients can move forward knowing their care is guided by experience, integrity, and careful decision making.
