I'm trying to find a dentist but see acronyms like DMD, DDS, PLLC after the dentist's name, what do they mean?

Partners of Limited Liability Corporation or


Professional Limited Liability Company

I'm trying to find a dentist but see acronyms like DMD, DDS, PLLC after the dentist's name, what do they mean?
DDS means doctor of dental surgery and PLLC means professional limited liability corp.
Reply:ANSWER: The first two are related to the medical titles, while PLLC is related to his business involvement or type of corporate designation for his practice.





Specifically,





DMD = Doctor of Medical Dentistry


DDS = Doctor of Dental Surgery


PLLC = Partners of Limited Liability Corporation
