My name is Amanda Williams and I am a dental assistant and I also own Premier Dental Academy of Longview. we do train in every dental field so like pediatrics, oral surgery, orthodontics, endodontics.

We teach a little bit into each one but they want to know can you suction, can you pass instruments, can you set up a tray, can you sterilize instruments, take impressions and we focus on those because those are essential and if you can't suction correctly or pass an instrument correctly or set up a room properly it's a big deal for a dentist so we focus mainly on that And we also have online classes, but the online classes, it is a go at your own pace.

So it does allow you that flexibility, but you don't get all the hands on training. So, we do prefer the in-person, we can train you better that way. We help you with your resume, we help you with preparing for job interviewing, and we do have connections with the dental offices around here.

and once you graduate after 12 weeks if you think you didn't get enough training or you didn't accomplish a skill like you wanted to then you can come back.

So come back and see us. You can give words of encouragement to other students And we do have a lot of potential students that will say, well, I don't have the money or I don't have childcare or I don't feel confident.

Whatever your reason may be, we want to know because we can help you overcome that. And we want to make you confident. We want to overcome that barrier there to get you in and get your career started as a dental assistant.

And we will work with you however we can. So whatever your problems may be, let us know and we can help you. You can call or text 903-913-6444. it will be me responding to you directly
