Hello,
I just recently landed a job as a Dental Assistant and was so happy. The Dentist is starting me off at 8/hr and a possibility of increasing it depending on how quick I catch on to things. But, its really not all aobut the money but more about the exposure im receiving. Im pretty sure pre-dental students will kill to have this position.
For all of you Dental Assistants out there; how was your first day on the job. Nervous much? How quick did you catch on to things.. like learning dental instruments, chairside assisting, or other tasks performed by an assistant. Also, will dental assisting make me stand out on my dental school application?
Are there websites online that can teach you about dental assisting and instruments?
Thanks Alot
