Change Your Patients’ Lives

Do you want to work in a field that has the potential to change a person’s life? When you work in dentistry, you will not only be affecting your patients’ oral health, but also their general and mental health.

First of all, the mouth is linked to the rest of the body. And this is not only because of the food we eat. The condition of a person’s mouth can influence their overall health. Dentists, doctors and researchers now recognize the oral-systemic connection, which links oral health to heart disease, diabetes and stroke.

Furthermore, the appearance of a person’s smile can make or break self-confidence. You won’t be the first dental assistant whose eyes well up with tears when patients see their newly restored smiles for the first time.

What’s the Job Market for Dental Assistants?

Dental assistants are in demand across the country. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that employment of dental assistants is projected to grow 19 percent from 2016 to 2026, more than the average for other occupations. The Bureau also reports that dental assisting is the third fastest growing occupation that does not require a college degree.

What Does a Dental Assistant Earn?

Dental assistants earn between $12 and $20 per hour. The Dental Assisting National Board conducted a survey and found that the median salary for a dental assistant in the U.S. was $31,739.

Want to increase your salary? Start by earning DANB certification, which is the first step toward meeting the requirements you need to perform expanded functions. Having this certification may increase your salary.

DANB’s own salary survey shows that dental assistants with Certified Dental Assistant (CDA) certification earn more than those that aren’t certified. A dental assistant with this certificate can earn more than $2 more per hour, or an additional $3,500 annually.

A welcome career can be yours when you enroll in the dental assisting course in Lebanon/Westerville!

It was a great experience! I was very nervous about dental and wasn’t sure how much I’d like it but through this experience I feel a lot better about going into the field. Jeanie who is the instructor is also a very warm person and truly cares for each of her students and their growth in the field.

Dental Assistant Pro is a wonderful program! The instructors, Jeanne and Abby, are very welcoming and do a great job at teaching their students. This program teaches you all of the basics and allows you to enter at an entry level dental assisting position at any Office. It was very convenient having classes only on the weekends and was so much fun!
