Courtney without a doubt, one of the best instructors I have had. Their passion for the subject is infectious, and they genuinely care about student success. I definitely recommend this course with her teaching you the basics you need to know to become a dental assistant. I truly appreciated her engaging, student-centered approach. I felt motivated to participate, and she was always approachable for help. Every-time I left class I was that much more confident in taking my X-Rays, impressions and pouring them up, by week 12 she mentioned how far I have came and the improvement I’ve made. Highly recommended! Thank you Ms. Courtney

Courtney was the absolute best instructor. She was patient and very knowledgeable. The material we went over helped us learn the basics. I would have to say if more patient care was gone over that would have helped alot to make me comfortable talking to patients as i bring them back to the clinic. The only other thing I would say is when going over entering patients in Dentrix, there needs to be a section on note taking because not every office uses Dentrix. The Orthodontic office I am at uses TOPS and there is not a chart of the mouth to choose which teeth and arch your working on, you have enter notes. I also believe other xray options need to be addressed and shown in the online material. Panos, iTero, ceph not just intraoral. Other than adding some material and taking out focusing on just xrays or making impressions there needs to be more time on learning instruments, patient care, note taking on dentrix. I had an amazing experience and enjoyed every moment!

Honestly, I had the best time and am sad that it went by so fast. Ms.Courtney is hands down an A.M.A.Z.I.N.G instructor. Her training has given me the confidence I need to move forward in this field. The one thing that stands out the most on what we have learned is definitely FMX. With her guidance and the feedback she gives, in her words my FMX are "chef's kiss! " Thank you Courtney and I'll miss your bubbly personality!

We don't accept financial aid, but we have some pretty great reasons why! The founder of our school, Dr. Ince, decided that he wanted to create an amazing opportunity for those who desire to enter the field. He believed that students not only deserve a great education, but also an affordable and convenient option. Rather than opting to make our school more expensive in order to allow for financial assistance, Dr. Ince chose to implement affordable tuition prices; providing our students with the opportunity to graduate with little to no student loan debt. If none of our payment plan options work for you, please give us a call. We are more than happy to customize a plan!
How long does it take to become a dental assistant?
The time it takes to become a Dental Assistant varies between schools and certificate programs. Our curriculum is 12-weeks long and fully prepares students to start working as a Dental Assistant.
Can I pay by check?
Yes, you can pay by check. Checks must be sent two weeks before your start date, and you must call our admissions team to provide a tracking number. They should be addressed to Zollege Management Inc., 715 Discovery Blvd. Suite 412, Cedar Park, TX, 78613.
How can your program be so fast?
This is a hands-on program, a different approach from traditional education. Our classes take place in a dental office rather than a classroom. Classes begin with a lecture/discussion, but most of the class time is spent in labs learning the essential dental assisting skills. When our students graduate, they feel at home in a dental office.
How can a short course be as effective as a longer program?
Dentists expect newly hired dental assistants to know fundamental skills. Our program focuses on helping you master those skills to set you up for success in your new career.
Will I be more qualified if I attend a longer program?
When you graduate from any dental assisting school you receive a certificate of completion. Many students ask if they can expect to make a higher starting salary if they attend a longer program. The starting salary for a Dental Assistant does not have anything to do with how long you spent in school or how much you paid for your schooling.
