Dental Assistant
Duties and Responsibilities: The duties of a dental assistant include preparing patients for treatments and teeth cleanings, plus sterilizing instruments. They also often assist dentists in their procedures by using suction equipment to clear patients' mouths. They might also process oral X-rays and help maintain patient records.
Salary: $47,580 a year
Education; This job does not necessarily require formal training, but a dentist assistant must pass the Certified Dental Assistant exam.
Reflection: Do you think you would like to become one? Why or why not?
-For my personal interest, I would not like to become a dental assistant because of my fear of hurting the patient while cleaning their teeth or messing up the dentist while they are doing their procedure. Overall, this seems like a good job but it is just not for me.
