Dental Assistant Student Reviews
If you are thinking about becoming a dental assistant this is the place to come. Ms. Dorian is an amazing instructor, the classes are affordable, and the schedule is great. The hybrid learning model meets my scheduling needs. The weekly labs help to solidify the independent learning and with a small cohort we have plenty of individualized time from our instructor. It has been a great experience learning from Houston Dental Assistant School. Time went really fast. I am proud to say that I completed and I am amazed at all the new skills that I have. JOB READY!

This Location is a really good and fun environment. Our class was small, but our teacher MS.Dorrian helped each one of us individually with skills we felt we needed to strengthen. As a single mom This school has helped me financially being more affordable than the other schools I’d looked at previously. Also fast tracked and very to the point. I feel more confident than I did before coming. Thank you Ms.Dorrian for all your help. Read less

I learned about this program through Google. Honestly, I chose the Spring location at 20423 Kuykendahl Rd, Unit 600, Spring, TX 77379 because it was the one that was starting the soonest. I began this journey feeling nervous about the adventure ahead of me because my English is not perfect, although I can communicate. I truly feel blessed to have had Mrs. Dorian as my instructor. She guided me throughout these three months, and I never felt out of place or unable to understand something, even without being fluent in English. This program is definitely a whirlwind of knowledge and hands-on experiences, but along the way, you will fall in love with this beautiful profession that allows you to care for and help others.

I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my dental career. The 12-week, hands-on program at  is the real deal — you train inside an actual working dental office at Matthew & Dai Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, so you’re learning on real equipment with real patients from day one.  Teacher Dorian is phenomenal. She’s the kind of instructor who doesn’t just teach, she invests in you. Dorian breaks down complex procedures like chairside assisting, sterilization, dental imaging, and four-handed dentistry into steps that actually make sense. SHe’s patient, encouraging, and has this way of building your confidence while holding you to a professional standard. Anytime someone was struggling, Dorian was right there giving one-on-one coaching until it clicked. You can tell she genuinely wants every student to succeed, and it shows in how prepared we felt for externships and job interviews.  Read less

Frequently Asked Questions

We don't accept financial aid, but we have some pretty great reasons why! The founder of our school, Dr. Ince, decided that he wanted to create an amazing opportunity for those who desire to enter the field. He believed that students not only deserve a great education, but also an affordable and convenient option. Rather than opting to make our school more expensive in order to allow for financial assistance, Dr. Ince chose to implement affordable tuition prices; providing our students with the opportunity to graduate with little to no student loan debt. If none of our payment plan options work for you, please give us a call. We are more than happy to customize a plan!

The time it takes to become a Dental Assistant varies between schools and certificate programs. Our curriculum is 12-weeks long and fully prepares students to start working as a Dental Assistant.

This is a hands-on program, a different approach from traditional education. Our classes take place in a dental office rather than a classroom. Classes begin with a lecture/discussion, but most of the class time is spent in labs learning the essential dental assisting skills. When our students graduate, they feel at home in a dental office.

Dentists expect newly hired dental assistants to know fundamental skills. Our program focuses on helping you master those skills to set you up for success in your new career.

When you graduate from any dental assisting school you receive a certificate of completion. Many students ask if they can expect to make a higher starting salary if they attend a longer program. The starting salary for a Dental Assistant does not have anything to do with how long you spent in school or how much you paid for your schooling.

Dental Assistants perform a variety of duties, including but not limited to assisting the dentist, carrying out clinical tasks, and completing administrative work.

Dental assistants may perform many different clinical duties including preparing patients and the work area for treatments and procedures, sterilizing dental instruments, assisting the dentist during procedures, administrative/front office tasks, working with patients on billing and payment, taking molds and impressions, performing x-rays, & more.

Dental Assistants are responsible for making patients feel at ease while also preparing them for treatment. During dental visits, assistants often work alongside the dentist.

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment of dental assistants is projected to grow 6 percent from 2024 to 2034, faster than the average for all occupations. For more information, please visit Bureau of Labor Statistics website.

As of May 2023, the median annual wage for dental assistants is $46,540. For more information, please visit Bureau of Labor Statistics website.

Benefits vary by practice and should be discussed with the hiring practice.
