Dental assistant      
Duties and responsibilities:
Dental assistants help prepare patients for treatments and teeth cleanings, plus sterilizing instruments. They also often assist dentists during procedures by using suction equipment to clear patients’ mouths. Dental assistants might also process oral X-rays and help maintain patient records.

Salary: $34,500

Education: An accredited program lasts for one to two years. For certification, a dental assistant must pass the Certified Dental Assistant exam administered by the Dental Assisting National Board.
                                                               


Reflection:
I wouldn’t like to work as a dental assistant because thinking about the fact that we have to work with teeth doesn’t really attract my attention in any way. It actually kind of grosses me out in a way.
