Dental assistants play an important role in the dental office, as they help patients remain comfortable and calm before, during, and after an exam or procedure. They also prepare patients for treatment, obtain and update medical records, take vital signs such as blood pressure, and provide patients with postoperative and aftercare instructions.
You’ll experience hands-on training in our spacious labs with professional dental equipment and tools. In addition, you’ll receive on-site classroom instruction, lead by our experienced teachers and dental professionals.
You’ll learn how to prepare and maintain treatment rooms, dental laboratories, and instruments, following OSHA, CDC, EPA, and OSAP guidelines for sterilization and disinfection; proper mixing and manipulation techniques for a variety of chairside and dental laboratory materials; and how to expose and process dental radiographs.
Toward the completion of your program, you will participate in an internship that lets you practice your new skills in a real dental setting with professional supervision.
