You may be thinking of hiring an additional dental assistant.
Providing externships in a working dental practice will give our students additional training to further enhance their skills, and this would give you the opportunity to give them an “extended working interview” before hiring them. You only have to volunteer to become one of our Externship practices. It’s easy.
The program is totally flexible, you can opt-in or out as you wish. If you want one or more than one student at a time, that is your option. We feel that the working experience of three to four weeks in your office would be extremely beneficial to enhance the training of our students and give them the added confidence they need. Remember, they have already had extensive training in an actual dental office, both using each other for “patients” and doing simulated, 4-handed treatment on training manikins.
