The only thing I hated about being a DA was whenever I went to work with a new doctor, they expected me to know what they wanted and how they wanted it on the very first try, without even bothering to tell me how they liked things. Every dentist works differently, has a different style, and it takes time to learn their movements and their personal flow. Yet explaining this to most dentists is like talking to a brick wall.

@Geminitwins247 5 лет назад

Agreed, in the office I work for we have an oral surgeon come in every few months or so and at first I thought I would be able to get his flow but unfortunately I haven't been able to grasp his way of working. I'm to use to the way my dentist works and the way she does things. Luckily for me I think the dentist I work for sees that and decides to chair side assist him when he comes in.

@user-ki6ke6ur4i 4 года назад

Omg Ik!!! When I started working with a new doctor I didn't know he wanted me to do the cleaning after put the crown (like cleaning the remains of the cement) And so he want to the other room to see another patient and I didn't know what to do, cus the patient was waiting with his fricking mouth open with remains of the glue and the cement, when I told the doctor we didn't finish with him yet he rolled his eyes at me, and said very loudly (in front of the patient!) What don't you understand clean the rest, you are wasting my time... And I was like : fuck, he is gonna be very fun to work with😑

@jamundsen1522 3 года назад

It’s absolutely ridiculous how hard we as assistants work out of everyone else in the practice and yet we are paid the lowest. Between maintenance, ordering supplies, preparing lab cases, sterilization, disinfection of rooms and surface areas, we hardly get what others receive as a full break or lunchtime. Constantly trying to get setups, rooms and patients cared for and yet we are the ones disrespected patients, staff and cheap dentists. During these times of pandemic we are highly at risk of an exposure and yet we continue our roles and duties as health care providers to provide patients with proper treatment and oral health education. Dental assistants deserve more respect, higher pay and benefits just as much as others receive in the oral healthcare field. Without assistants there would be no dental practice.

@@jodieton3630 We do provide! Everything!!! From making sure the instruments are sterilization to checking the patient's medical history so they're not given epi if they have a heart issue!! No one wants to be on the front line of the #1 most dangerous job there is in this pandemic. Doctors don't know anything about sterilization protocol let alone breaking down a opertorary and set up. Most don't know where anything is!! Why do hygienist have a national group and assistant don't. Why aren't we organized. Why aren't we unionized? We have been abused, monetarily, emotionally and in some cases physically!! We hold the cards now ladies. Let's empower ourselves!!

@Geminitwins247 5 лет назад

Im a dental assistant right now and I aspire to move up and hopefully become a dental hygienist. I think becoming a dental assistant is also a good way to help you determine if you like the dental field. It honestly has helped me know for sure that I enjoy the dental field and Im also getting experience in the field. Next step is Dental hygiene school!

@TeethTalk 5 лет назад

@amydumas573 4 года назад

You messed up, you should’ve just went straight into a dental hygiene program. Dental assistants are often mistreated and underpaid. I’m sure you realized that by now.

@Geminitwins247 4 года назад

@@amydumas573 No, I won't say i've been messed treated working as a dental assistant. But I will admit the pay isn't very good. Lucky for me the dentist I worked for was very kind and friendly. A very good employer to which I was sad that I had to leave. I already have a bachelor degree so I wouldn't say I messed up. Also the dental hygiene programs in my area are very tough to get into cause there are only a few. For me, i've decided to try to make use of my degree and find a decent paying job hopefully with benefits. That is another thing with the dental field. It can be tough to get full benefits. But yeah Lucky for me I had a good experience working as a dental assistant.

Months before deciding to enroll into DA school, I searched for a video that actually showed “A day in the life of a DA”, & not just a “sit down vlog” without an actual visual insight of what to actually except! As a DA student, I can say that your video is spot on! Great video this really gives aspiring DAs a huge glimpse into the DAs job description.

@timothywatt 4 года назад

Great job on making this video! I'm one of the very few male dental assistants. I've worked as a DA for more than 8 years. I enjoy the work itself, but the dentist you work for makes all the difference. I've had my share of working with verbally abusive dentists. That feeling of dread of coming to work in the morning is the worst, all because of the dentist.

Learning to be the "all around girl, Jackie of all trades " will eventually make a DA indispensable. Duties from front desk to operatories, to sterilization, to ordering supplies, to back lab pouring stone models / making bleaching trays /custom trays etc .... I've been a DA since 1986 and yes, each decade gives me more & more things to learn, to remember, to do in the office and how to handle a variety of situations in an office specially if someone has a different vibes from the rest.

I’ve been a dental assistant and hygienist. Both are underpaid and overworked ESPECIALLY dental assistants. I’m currently one now in Florida and it’s the only career I’ve had so I can’t leave but regret getting into this. The job itself can be overwhelming and the dentist NEVER appreciates all the hard work that you do for them.

Way to much duties on one person, not to mention no breaks in between patients. Your honestly lucky if you even get a lunch or time to drink water. You literally have to cut yourself in 3 to get everything done. It's impossible for one person to tray set, get the room ready, sterilize, assist dentint, and handle the front desk all at once. This is the main reason why everyone that graduates as a DA doesn't stay long in the practice long

It wasn't but 2 minutes later he was knocking on the door saying "Are you done yet?" I quickly finished and being so incensed though gritted teeth I growled "I AM NOW."

The roles of a dental assistant are similar yet so different from a dental nurse. Its weird to think you all help each other out so much and can flow so we'll. We have to see 15-25 patients in the morning and again in the afternoon and half are emergencies. It's great you all work as a team as we have to do all this on our own. I work in a 7 surgery practice so we get through a lot of patients each day as every surgery is running.

Once you get the hang of it it’s all easy and fun ! Yea there’s tiring ass days and not only do you deal with mean patients like most ppl do in the health field .. you always gotta deal with dental anxiety ! To comfort someone and educate them and to help them reach their goals is satisfying . Also yes it’s very true that a lot of the dentist are mean the first office I worked at I had a very asshole of a Dr. to work with but now i moved onto a office and love the Dr. I work with!!

Amazing Dentist!... No other words can describe this place. Affordable, clean , and very welcoming. My family comes here as well and they are very pleased with their services. They are not like many other dentist where its a constant scam with insurance. They are very fair and would recommend this place to everyone.

I’m a dental technician and I’ve had the opportunity to experience this role as part of my national service. For me it’s been an okay experience. The downside for me is the long hours on your feet and the workload. Also you’d have to deal with very disrespectful doctors who don’t appreciate the effort you put in place to keep the surgery running at all times. I don’t like the job because it offers no career progression. I got a degree in Dental Laboratory Sciences and somehow learnt the nurse role in a week so for me it’s not a special job and it doesn’t even pay as much considering how stressful it is. Highly wouldn’t recommend 🥴

I’m a dental assistant! It sucks because no office wants to hire me since I’m at “entry level” when I know I’m a good dental assistant! :( especially since I did so good on my internship. So sad i spent so much money for no one to even hire me lol.

@liliana.sepulveda6407 5 лет назад

Giselle Mariscal went through that same situation when I had just gotten out of school about a year and half ago but trust me after a few interviews I finally found my current office that I’ve been with ever since and it was sooo worth the wait! My school was my biggest help in getting placed because they would send my resume out non stop to so many different offices until I finally got hired! Don’t lose hope and good luck :)!

@steph7115 5 лет назад

It happened to me too. I finished school in 2015, I had to literally relocate to Arizona just to find work. I'm finally at a dentist office 4 years later 😄 Dont give up, they always discriminate on new dental assistants. Try volunteering at your local free dental clinic.

I don't mind doing a technical school or something like that for maybe two years but yeah.

Look out for people with stromg gag reglex u can have then insert the sensor in. Impressions u can mold the trays if some patients gum touches the tray.

Literally quit my job as a DA of 6 years because I was so miserable, I choose being pretty much poor to change careers and go to school and work a part time min wage job because DAing sucked so much. Everything you said is accurate beside the shit pay, long hours, and most likely having to work with crazy women in the office or a rude crazy doctor.

Once again #Truth, it is a total shit show... the profession doesn't get the respect and appreciation it deserves... I literally was just offered a job for a position at an office I temped.. I did not even apply for the perm job.. I believe bc the applicants were not showing up bc the office is so toxic... all the workers look miserable and I hated temping there myself... dentists there are so entitled and disrespectful. I can't blame them for feeling miserable. But yeah they offered me the job and I told the office manager the dentist I worked with spoke to me in a condescending way, she debated with me... I told her people naturally do not want to go places or be around ppl who talk down to them. It is honestly such a shit job based on who you work with and how they treat you.
