Guilford Technical Community College

Sure, I can provide information on the Guilford Technical Community College dental assisting program and dental hygienist program in English.

Guilford Technical Community College (GTCC) offers a dental assisting program that prepares students to work as entry-level dental assistants. The program includes courses in dental anatomy, radiography, infection control, dental materials, and more. Students also gain hands-on experience through clinical rotations in local dental offices. Upon completion of the program, students are eligible to take the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) certification exam.

In addition to the dental assisting program, GTCC also offers a dental hygiene program that prepares students to become licensed dental hygienists. The program includes courses in dental hygiene theory, pharmacology, dental radiography, periodontology, and more. Students also gain clinical experience through rotations in GTCC’s dental hygiene clinic and local dental offices. Graduates of the program are eligible to take the National Board Dental Hygiene Examination and the clinical board exam to become licensed dental hygienists.

Both programs at GTCC are accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) and are designed to prepare students for successful careers in the dental field.
