The instructor Stalford Sunderland is absolutely amazing. Dental assistant school was a really great experience for me. The program was hands-on and actually prepared me for what itโ€™s like to work in a real dental office. The instructor Stalford Was helpful, patient, and made sure we understood both the clinical skills and the classroom material. I liked that we didnโ€™t just sit and listenโ€”we practiced things like X-rays, charting, sterilization, and assisting chairside, which made me feel confident going into the field. The program was well-organized and supportive, and I always felt encouraged to ask questions and improve. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone who wants a career in dental assisting and wants real-world training, not just textbook learning. Read less

We had our last class today, and I cannot sing Stalford Sunderland's praises enough as an instructor!!! She's the only reason I stuck through the course. She listened to every recommendation we had during labs and worked with us to reach our individual goals. The rest of the advisors and online assistance may leave something to be desired but it's not necessary. I recommend the Uptown location solely for Stalford and why I put 5 stars. 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.

Yes, you can pay by check. Checks must be sent two weeks before your start date, and you must call our admissions team to provide a tracking number. They should be addressed to Zollege Management Inc., 715 Discovery Blvd. Suite 412, Cedar Park, TX, 78613.

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.

Per the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of dental assistants is projected to grow 19 percent from 2016 to 2026, much 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.
