Dental Assistant

Duties and Responsibilities:

          Dental assistants work closely with licensed dentists before, during and after dental work. They prepare patients for procedures, record medical histories, take x-rays and prepare dental equipment.

Salary:

          $34,750.

Education:

            There are no formal education requirements for entering a career in dental assisting. Some assistants have a high school diploma and only receive on-the-job training. Some can take post secondary dental assisting programs that one may take.

Reflection:

          Personally I would not like to become a Dental Assistant; I have my eyes on a much greater field than that.
