About Dental Assistants
There are many opportunities as a dental assistant. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, because of rapid employment growth and substantial replacement needs, there should be good job opportunities for dental assistants nationally. Dental assistants can seek certification as a Certified Dental Assistant once they meet work experience requirements.
The dental assisting field generally requires physical work, moving throughout the office, standing on ones feet for long periods of time, and sometimes in small places. Dental Assistants have close contact with the public. For this reason, successful candidates must be in good physical health.
