Dental Assistant 

Dental Assistants are the who help the dentist and usually set up the appointments. They help prepare for whatever treatment the patient is going to have they set it up so when the dentist walks in the room to do the treatment everything will all be set up. 

Duties and Responsibilities:

Dental Assistants assist the dentist in providing more efficient dental treatment by preparing the patient for treatment, sterilizing instruments, passing instruments during the procedure, holding suction devices, exposing dental radiographs, taking impressions, and fabricating provisional crowns. Dental operators can focus more time on the procedure; the dental assistant becomes the dentist extra hands.

You can have a formal education by going to a community college, technical institutes, universities or dental schools.

I would not like to be a dental assistant because it is to much work.
