The Advanced School of Dental Assisting, ASDA, was founded to address today's very real shortage of dental assistants and to prepare students for a career in this rewarding and "recession-resistant" field.  The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that there will be more than 80,000 job openings nationwide for qualified dental assistants each year, and that this shortage of dental assistants will increase over many years to come.  This means there will be significant job opportunities in your immediate area.

Our program was designed with the needs of both students and dentists in mind.  For the students, the program is affordable, convenient, fast and effective.  Classes are taught after hours in my actual dental office and the focus is on hands-on learning that boosts comprehension and builds confidence.  Surplus topics and unnecessary philosophy are excluded to avoid confusion and delay.  All school materials are provided by ASDA.  To you, this means that you can begin your new career sooner, with less cost and greater comfort level with your new skills.

For dentists, we provide graduates who know dental offices and routines.  Dentists can rely on our graduates to become productive quickly in their practices due to the hands-on aspect of their training, and they appreciate that the program leaves treatment and office philosophy to their discretion.  This translates to better help, faster for doctors who desperately need dental assistants.  To you, this means that we provide you an advantage in both hiring opportunities and compensation.

Our program is only 9 weeks, and is held twice a week on Wednesday and Thursday from 8am-12pm in my dental office.  Our classes are limited with a teacher for each 5 students and the next session begins June 9th, 2010 and then again in September.   The tuition is $2,750 complete, with no hidden costs or charges, and must be paid in full two weeks prior to the start of class.  This price includes all textbooks, a workbook, instruments, and models of teeth, scrubs, protective eyewear, gloves, and masks.  Financing is available.  You will also become CPR certified.  The only requirement is a High School diploma or GED.  You are always welcome to visit my office for a tour of the school.  To make an appointment, just call us.

We help people prepare for a career in the field, not just another job with an uncertain future.  If you need any additional information, call us at (708) 239-3161.
