This program offers class-based instruction. Our classes are held in a working general dental office with a separate lecture area and designated rooms for hands-on instruction. Our course is 12 weeks and includes 216 hours of classroom, laboratory and clinical instruction and internship time. Evening classes are held Monday through Thursday. Our goal is to offer a flexible schedule, so you can start training for a career in dental assisting even if you have a full time job. New England School Of Dental Assisting students observe and practice a variety of dental procedures as part of the program requirements. Your training, practice, and studies will result in a Certificate of Completion.
Students need to be at least 18 years of age. We require a high school diploma or G.E.D. to enroll in our dental assisting program. If you meet these requirements, we’ll invite you to an interview and tour of the school facilities.
