Become a rockstar dental assistant; build a high-paying career that shines!
It seemed pretty straightforward… Attend school. Pass the exam.
Get your Certification. Find a dental office that’s hiring, and get a job. Simple, right?
As a dental assistant, you’re an advocate for your patients. The person they spend the most time with; Who sets the tone to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. You’re also your doctor’s right hand. You play a critical role in helping people live healthier lives.
And while your education lays an incredible foundation for the nuts and bolts, the textbooks and exams only scratch the surface.
How do you give proper care and compassion to each and every patient?
How can you make sure you’re always two steps ahead of the doctor?
I get each and every one of these concerns, because I’ve been there.
But after a decade of building my own career as a dental assistant, I’ve seen, learned, and done pretty much all of it.
It wasn’t always easy, but I have a career that I love — and that’s what I want for you.
