Episode 447: What Dental Assistants Say About Working at Aspen Dental
What does it take to build a lasting career in dental assisting? In this episode, you'll hear firsthand how earning a CDA, embracing continuous learning, and working in a supportive environment can open doors to leadership, hygiene school, and long term career growth. Kevin Henry sits down with Molly Ward, Mikelle, and Lynn Turner to explore their career journeys at Aspen Dental and the impact of becoming Certified Dental Assistants. Molly shares how she transitioned from being a certified nurse's assistant into dentistry, found confidence through earning her CDA, and is now pursuing her dream of becoming a dental hygienist. Mikelle reflects on a 20 year career that began as a dental assistant and evolved into managing dental assistant support, highlighting the value of mentorship, certification, and investing in professional development. Lynn discusses her experience as a lead dental assistant, her passion for coaching new assistants, and how expanding her knowledge through certifications has strengthened both her skills and patient care. Together, they emphasize the importance of supportive doctor assistant relationships, career advancement opportunities, and lifelong learning in creating fulfilling careers in dentistry. Aspen Dental Website: www.aspendental.com ------------------- Dental assistants play a powerful role in whether patients move forward with treatment. You are a key part of the patient journey, and having the right financial options can make all the difference. CareCredit is a health and wellness credit card that offers flexible financing options, so patients can pay over time for the care they want or need, subject to credit approval. When money isn’t the obstacle, patients say yes. Want to make CareCredit part of your practice’s offerings and strengthen case acceptance?
