According to the Orange County Register posted on July 21st, 2009, the growth of dental assistant career is unstoppable “With a projected job growth rate of 33.5, the occupation of dental assistant is projected to be the Orange County’s 11th fastest-growing occupation from 2006 through 2016, according to the EDD. An estimated 4,600 dental assistants were employed in Orange County in 2006, and the occupation is expected to generate 2,340 job openings through 2016. This includes 1,540 newly created jobs and 800 openings due to replacement needs."

 

According to Ms. Sheila Wiley of Jobing.com, Los Angeles, "It's not surprising that the demand for dental assistants continues to rise. Dentists have come to rely on their assistants to perform an expanding array of important patient procedures. A career as a dental assistant offers variety and flexibility in work and schedules, excellent working conditions, and personal satisfaction from doing an important service and working with people."

 

If you cannot afford the tuition fee of an accredited school or do not want to spend many months in a classroom, this course may be your next best option! If you want to attend Dental Hygiene School or even Dental School but aren't quite sure if it's really the career you want, this is an inexpensive way for you to find out.


In these challenging economic times, you need to be financially wise and most of all, quickly employable!


We do not have a job-placement program, however, since the beginning of our school, dentists from all over Los Angeles and the surrounding areas would call us regularly, asking for new grads. A lot of our students became employed this way, even before they finished the course!!!

 

We prefer our classes to be small so as to create an excellent academic environment conducive for rapid learning. For this reason, enrollment is limited.
