Dr. Fagundes has been in private practice for the past twenty years mastering his technique through experience and continuing his education. His thirst for knowledge and his passion for his profession motivated Dr. Fagundes to complete the rigorous requirements to become Board-Certified in 2001.
Dr. Fagundes is a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics. He is also a member of the American Association of Endodontists, the American Dental Association, and the Georgia Dental Association.
Board Certification is the highest level of achievement in Endodontics. Less than one-third of Endodontists are Board-Certified. We hope that this further instills your confidence in our office. Dr. Fagundes is the only Board-Certified Endodontist in the LaGrange, Newnan, and Columbus area.
A Board-Certified Endodontist has satisfied all requirements of the Board Certification process of the American Board of Endodontics (ABE). This individual is a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics.

Three exams over several years are completed which include a written exam, case submissions and finally an oral examination conducted by the Directors of the ABE. All of these must be completed satisfactorily within a specific timeframe.
