Become A Dental Assistant In Just 10 Weeks!

Yes, our program is accredited by the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education. 

We are now accepting applications for the Fall Term (starting October 12).

The program is 10 weeks long, with an 11th day available for additional practice or instruction.

Classes are held once a week on Saturday from 9:00 am – 5 pm. This schedule allows our students to continue working their current jobs while they complete the program. Additionally, students should plan to attend a 4-hour orientation session prior to the first day of class.

At capacity, we have one teacher to every five students.

The curriculum is blended. About 25 hours of instruction will be available online, and the majority of the class will be held onsite at the dental office. Please note that Your Smile Denta Academy is a “hand-on learning program.” The student’s time while onsite will be spent in labs learning the essential techniques of Dental Assisting.

The program usually costs $4000 elsewhere.  Our program costs $2,500 and the tuition fee includes the 10-week program, dental supplies, textbook, and scrubs. In addition, students will also work with experienced dental staff and doctors in a live dental office, resume and job placement assistance.

We offer various payment plans to meet your needs:

Pay in Full: Pay the full amount prior to starting classes. This option includes all necessary supplies and incurs no interest.

2nd option: Pay a deposit of $500 to secure your spot and the balance prior to starting classes.

3rd option: Pay a deposit of $500 to secure your spot, then $166.67 the next 12 weeks from the start of the class.

Note: You will not receive your certificate until the balance is paid in full.

Students should generally be older than 18 years of age, have a high school diploma or equivalent, and have access to a computer or smartphone. A criminal conviction will need to be explained to the California Board of Dentistry, and all necessary documents submitted for evaluation.

You will learn the latest techniques and best practices in dental assisting, including chairside assisting, dental radiology, infection control, and patient communication.
