Our students are also taught front office procedures such as insurance verification, billings, giving estimates, answering phones
and training on dentemax software. We also offer a x-ray prep course and a coronal polish prep course, and pay for one attempt at the licensing exam offered by DANB for each course.
In addition, we offer free refresher courses and help with resume preparation,
and mock interviews, and provide job leads when available.
