hi,
i am a licensed dentist in MD.
i believe before you can get any job as an assistant you need to have a certification for DA & preferably a Xray certification as well.
you need to go through a dental assisting school to be certified as an assistant.
you will need CPR certification as well.
you cannot work without a license in any US state.
you can observe in a dental office but nobody will allow you to touch a patient.
contact Maryland state board of examiners for fine details on the matter.
hope this helps.👍
 
Thank you KPK for the information.
I am FTD and i want to have some work experience to enhance my resume. I need U.S experience as I worked as Dentist for years back home. The only thing is these days experience in U.S is so important to get into dental school.
Thank you so much KPK.

This is not true. Many US states allow FTD work as DA without a DA license. Unlike ADA for DDS, there is no AUTHENTIC national license certification for DA. Different states have different requirement for people who want to be DA.
 
Hello Happyk9,
Thank you so much for the further information. This will give an idea to upcomming FTD for finding DA job or observership. It will also help them to enhance their CV and better chance to get into dental school.

Thanks alot.
