Become a Dental Assistant | Dental Assisting Opportunities

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of dental assistants is expected to be among the fastest growing occupations through 2018, with demand expected to grow by 36 percent. Choosing a career as a dental assistant is a smart decision, since entry-level dental professionals are currently in high demand.

Dental assistants work in a well-lighted, clean environment. Almost all jobs for certified dental assistants are in the offices of dentists. About half of dental assistants have a 35- to 40-hour workweek, which may include work on Saturdays or evenings.

WelcomeTo the Arizona School of Dental Assisting

The Arizona School of Dental Assisting (ASDA) was founded through the efforts of Dr. Enrico DiVito and Ms. Lisa Stevenson. The school has been open and operating as a post secondary school since 2001. Dr. DiVito has recognized the need for well-trained dental assistants and has found it difficult to find good assistants since opening his practice in 1980. Ms. Stevenson has been a dental assistant since 1981. Her expertise encompasses supervision and clinical instruction of future dental assistants.
