Summary
Ambitious Certified Dental Assistant; Graduated august 2026! I have entry level experience. Completed extensive hands-on clinical hours assisting chairside. Desired to help others also build trust with patients and put them at ease. I reminisce about my past dental anxiety as a child seeking the unknown. My best outcome aims to make patients feel comfortable and informed. I am very eager about the dental field and having a career-level role. I am dedicated to seeking a welcoming dental team, while also delivering the best top-tier care to patients!
