Smile! It’s Dental Assistant Recognition Week
We are excited to recognize the contributions of our dental assistants through National Dental Assistant Recognition Week, March 4-10, 2018. This week is a tribute to the commitment and dedication the dental assistants exhibit throughout the year. It is a time for them to receive greater recognition for their own unique and diverse contributions to the dental profession and the dental health care of the public. At Kids Teeth we honor our assistants with special treats, activities, and gifts all week long.
To really appreciate a dental assistant, you must first understand their role at the office. Watch the video below to hear Dr. Will & Dr. Mike explain the role of our dental assistants.
As you heard in the video – Kim, Holly and Meghan – are most responsible for the patient and parent’s comfort during their appointment but their contributions continue much past a scheduled appointment. Whether working chairside with the dentist, preparing and sterilizing instruments, taking X-rays, monitoring sedations, completing lab work, taking impressions, or ordering supplies, dental assistants are vital to the success of our dental practice. We are extremely excited to celebrate these wonderful ladies all week long. Thank you for all you do at Kids Teeth!
