AboutDental Assisting School of Arizona
At the Dental Assisting School of Arizona, we prepare and educate aspiring dental assistants on what they will need to know in order to become professional dental assistants at a dental office. During our 13-week course, we cover a large variety of forms of chairside assistance during dental procedures. We also review how to help patients remain calm while providing a welcoming demeanor.
We will also prepare and instruct our students about the application process for dental assistant positions after passing the course. This way, our students have the medical knowledge, the proper demeanor and understanding of the application process to begin their path toward a dental assistant career. The first step is to reach out and contact us about enrollment or visit our website.
