Do you need a Dental Assistant?

Our No Fee Placement Program

Dental Careers Institute of Marietta has been teaching Dental Assisting to students in an actual working dental practice since 1987. Our graduates have been placed in some of the finest offices throughout metro Atlanta and surrounding suburbs. These students are ready to go from Day 1 in your office. Won’t you give one a chance to prove their skill level? There is NO COST to your office when you request one of our students. We provide you with a Class Roster showing the student’s test performance in written and practical examinations and a photo of each student.

All graduates are Certified in Radiology in accordance with Georgia law and are trained in all phases of General Dentistry including: Endodontics, Pediatrics, Oral Surgery, Crown & Bridge, Periodontics, Restorative, Orthodontics, Cosmetic Bleaching, Impressions, Temporaries, Sterilization, Record Keeping, Charting, and much more. Our graduates are employed by not only general dentists but all the specialties of dentistry as well.

Hands on from Day 1

Our students have extensive hands-on experience with actual chair-side, 4-handed assisting, emphasizing proper instrument transfer techniques and the correct use of HVE suction. Because our training program occurs in a real working dental office (NOT a vocational school classroom), you can be assured that our students have been taught the very latest techniques and current treatment room procedures using modern, state-of-the-art equipment, including digital, panoramic and film xrays, tub & tray systems, and current dental materials. We provide our graduates to you at NO FEE whatsoever.

Our students are trained in all aspects of general dentistry, as well as the specialties and receive hands-on clinical training from the first day of class. Our licensed school, Dental Careers Institute of Marietta is well respected in the dental community. For over 30 years, Georgia dentists have been hiring our graduates and have been very pleased with their training. Ask your colleagues about our graduates, many of them have one or more of our students already working in their office.

Externships

By providing externships in a working dental practice, you will give our students additional training to further enhance their skills. You may be thinking of hiring an additional dental assistant 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 of it as you wish. If you want one or more than one student at a time, that is your option. We feel that a working experience of 3-4 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.

You and your office can help to provide badly needed, well trained assistants for the profession in our own local Atlanta area. Won’t you consider joining our Externship Program? There is NO COST to you to participate.
