Dental Assistant
The duties of a dental assistant are among the most
comprehensive and varied in the dental office. The dental assistant performs
many tasks requiring both interpersonal and technical skills.
Duties
and responsibilities: Dental
assistants have many tasks, ranging from providing patient care and taking x
rays to recordkeeping and scheduling appointments. Their duties vary by state
and by the dentists’ offices where they work.
Salary: $34,500
Education: There are
several possible paths to becoming a dental assistant. Some states require
assistants to graduate from an accredited program and pass a state exam. In
other states, there are no formal educational requirements.
Reflection:
I
would not like to be a dental assistant because you don’t get paid good enough.
Also if I would be into the dental career I’ll be the dentist not an assistant.
