DENTAL ASSISTANT
Dental Assistants take impressions, perform X-rays, provide patient education, and are considered to be the "right hand" of the Dentist as a chair side assistant for basic and complicated dental procedures. Other duties include keeping accurate dental records, billing, scheduling appointments, sterilizing dental instruments, setting up the exam rooms, and provide comfort and reassurance to the patient. The Dental Assistant may choose to specialize in pediatric or orthodontics. Our program also includes EDDA, which is the expanded duties functions where you will learn to place fillings.
