About our Clinic:

Our dental practice is quite lively.

A positive attitude, and modern dentistry, can bring joy to our patients.

A Day in the Life of a Dental Assistant with Salud:

Let’s face it: A Dental Assistant does a lot over the course of a workday. For example, you prepare the treatment room; you maintain the schedule and ensure the team is sticking to it; you interact with patients before, during, and after procedures; and you assist the dentist chairside. And these are just some of the many duties on your plate.
