What Kind of Work Do We Prepare You To Do?

When you graduate, you'll be qualified to work as a Dental Assistant or a Chairside Assistant in dental offices and clinics.

Using what you've learned at Allied College, you provide instruments and materials to dentists, keep patients' mouths clear, sterilize instruments and equipment, and prepare tray setups for dental procedures.

During a patient exam, you may also instruct patients on proper oral care, remove sutures, apply anesthetics to gums or cavity-preventive agents to teeth, and more.
