What is a dental assistant test?

They primarily assist the dentist with patient care chairside. They also clean up the room after a procedure, and set it up beforehand. They are responsible to make sure instruments are sterilized, and the appropriate materials and instruments are available to efficiently complete dental procedures on a patient. Often they take x-rays and make impressions. They also help take care of dental records, recording information and ensuring the correct patient, correct site, and correct procedure is being accomplished.
