At Children’s Dental Health Dental Assistant School our goal is to provide the resources and education to individuals who desire to become a dental assistant. Our program introduces the basic concepts of dentistry and the dental assistant’s role including, but not limited to: dental terminology, tooth numbering, names of tooth surfaces, dental records and charting, chairside dentistry, the use of dental instruments, routine dental procedures, infection control, and professional communication in healthcare. Students can expect an interactive educational experience as they complete the 96-hour program. Not only will there be lectures taught by a qualified Expanded Function Dental Assistant and dentist, students will also have the opportunity to discover what a dental assistant does on a day-to-day basis. Students will go on-site for hands on training to put what they have learned in the classroom into practice.
