Becoming A Dental Assistant

Dental Assistant

Becoming a dental assistant can be rewarding if you:

  • Enjoy helping people
  • Have a gentle touch
  • Work well with team members
  • Are detail oriented
  • Are trustworthy
  • Never stop learning

As you sit in the dental chair, are you nervous or calm? When a patient is in pain, they are usually a bit nervous.

Think about the dental assistant that YOU would want….

Patients like to feel heard when they explain their discomfort. They hope that you are knowledgeable and they need you to be kind and caring. Sometimes they will confide in you so they need to be able to trust you.

This is a place to learn more about how to become the best dental assistant you can be. We are always learning.

“Too Busy to Study”

Have you ever said this?

“I need to pick up the kids after work so can you pick up some milk on your way home? Here is a list of a few other things we need. I have class tonight and we have a quiz. I haven’t had a chance to even look at my notes. I will try to do that on my lunch hour. No wait… I have a ‘lunch and learn’ today. I guess I will try to get to class a few minutes early to go over my chapter notes.”

We hear this all the time. This site was created with the busy student in mind.  As this site grows with information, it will become a resource for the busy student that wants to improve their life by going back to school.
