Dental Assistant

Dental Assistant 


Duties and responsibilities:  Dental Assistants assist the dental operator in providing more efficient dental treatment, by preparing the patient for treatment, sterilizing instruments, passing instruments during the procedure, holding suction devices, exposing dental radiographs, taking impressions, and fabricating provisional crowns. Dental operators can focus more time on the procedure; the dental assistant then effectively becomes the operator's extra hands.

Salary: $35,000-$47,500 

Education: Community College and certification by the DANB examination.

                                              

Reflection: Would you like to be one? Why? Or Why not? 
No I would not like to become a dental assistant because I wouldn't like to be working with someones mouth.
