Wilkes Community College

Sure, I can provide information about the Dental Assistant program at Wilkes Community College.

Wilkes Community College offers a diploma program in Dental Assisting. The program is designed to prepare students to become dental assistants who work alongside dentists in providing patient care. The program includes both classroom instruction and hands-on clinical experience.

The program covers a range of topics such as dental anatomy and terminology, dental materials, infection control, dental radiography, dental specialties, and dental office management. Students will also have the opportunity to gain practical experience through clinical rotations in dental offices.

Upon completion of the program, students are eligible to sit for the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) certification exam. Graduates of the program can work in a variety of dental settings, including private practices, clinics, hospitals, and public health facilities.

If you are interested in the program, I recommend visiting the Wilkes Community College website or contacting the school directly for more information on the application process, program requirements, and tuition costs.
