Reflection: I think I will like to
become a dental assistant because they pay good money and it seems interesting to
help someone out and work with someone’s teeth. But again I wouldn’t like to
become a dental assistant and will actually like to be the one getting the assistants
from someone else.
My sister is currently going to school to become a dental assistant, and she can't wait until she is able to start working! She is getting very close to finishing up, and I think that it would be really great for her find a job before she graduates. I want to make sure that she is employed at a good dentist's office where she can have good coworkers. Hopefully she is able to find a good job for herself so that she can enjoy this experience! http://www.dentaljobsplus.com
