The Dental Assistant Program
Ready to start your journey in becoming a certified dental assistant? Here at Cestar College, we offer two levels of certification under our Dental Assistant Program – Intra-Oral Level I & II.
Unlike a dental hygiene program, this program thoroughly prepares its learners to provide direct aid to dentists in the form of administration tasks, patient preparation, chairside dental assisting, and various other dental assisting tasks in the dental office.
Level I and level II dental assistants (as subdivided by the Canadian Dental Assistants Association and recognized by the Ontario Dental Assistants Association) need specific training programs that will refine the needed skillsets for different responsibilities on the job.
See our scope of practice from the ODAA here.
Cestar College’s dental assisting course (Intra-Oral Level I & II) is NDAEB-approved and is an accredited institution for providing formal training for national dental assisting. Furthermore, the program features HARP-approved dental radiography training.
