Let’s face it – not everyone loves going to the dentist. But there’s something pretty cool about seeing your teeth in an x-ray, or cast in plaster. In fact, dental health is a key component of your overall health. So if you are interested in health care but not in long school or work hours, consider a career as a dental assistant.
As a dental assistant, no two days are the same. You might greet patients, schedule appointments, help the hygienist or dentist or work in the lab. You have all the benefits of working in the medical field without working most nights and weekends.
