Welcome to the dental clinic!

A Dental Assistant plays a vital role in a dental clinic. The dental assistant assists the dentist in assessing your teeth and uses their knowledge to support the patient with their oral care. This week we will learn about the dental assistant's role, the anatomy of the teeth and mouth, and dental equipment used in the clinic. You will also get to visit the online dental classroom and listen to a teacher talk about the dental assisting courses at OTEN.

I hope you enjoy finding out about teeth, oral care and dental assistants!
