I’m an Endo assistant in Canada and I agree with you! Sooooo many emergencies but also love being able to help patients- tooth pain can be a b*tch & not fun🥺 Also definitely helps working with a doctor who’s funny👌🏼

I’m a dental assistant in an endo office in OC California, I can totally agree! We try to block out at least 30 mins but we get emergencies or sometimes procedures can be pretty long depending on the infection of the tooth. Other than that it’s fun and interesting so I’m enjoying it

Endo is boring long and slow u should try orthodontic thats were the money is.i like general dentistry because i dont like to do the same procedure all day i like a variety. I have been a dental assistant for a very long time get out of endo

Thanks for the advice xD! I have thought about getting out of endo. Not because I find the procedures boring... my doctor makes them very fun since we talk and laugh the whole time 😊 but because I really don’t like getting out late 😬 BUT my doctor pays for our health insurance and most ortho places don’t do that. And we get paid similar to ortho as well . AS FOR GENERAL DENTISTRY... keeping track of all the dental procedures is very stressful to me ... and I don’t want to go to a place that will treat me bad because of it :/

They block out lunches for us doesn’t mean we always get them but they do block it out My endo dr would usually take about 45 mins to do a rct that was normal time and if it was a a anterior tooth than it would be about 20 but he was a specialist that would go into general offices so we traveled everywhere My dr never uses the microscope so that was nice

Oh snap! The fastest we have ever done a rct is 50 min. And that was only because we were doing 6 handed dentistry xD!! That’s a really impressive time though. Thanks for giving me an insight 😉

Its not that they forbid us from having a lunch. They don’t block out a time for it, but they still expect us to take one when we can. Basically its at the employees discretion when to take it, but sometimes we just don’t have time ;-;

Awe! Well it all just depends I guess on the doctor too. We use this fancy irrigation machine called Gentlewave before we fill the canals... so that adds like 20 min to the procedure 😅 You will be fine though! Ask for that nitrous if you’re nervous 😉

Oh sorry!! I meant long exposure to nitrous (like for more than 5 hours every single day) is dangerous. If you use it for a procedure here and there, you should be fine 😅 I should’ve made that more clearer sorry 😓 But thats good that your dentist cares about your comfort 💕

What she said! I honestly don’t know. But I assume hourly so that if you put in over time, you will get paid more. If you just get a salary, you will get the set amount even if you put in over time. Congratz on almost graduating!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳

hey, im so very confused. the internet never tells me how long it is to become an endodontic assistant. can you answer for me? incuding undegrad, how long is the average schooling for this?
@MelanieLunaDiaz
@MelanieLunaDiaz 3 жыл бұрын
Hey there! Good question. So all you need is your RDA certificate and a little experience in general dentistry to become an Endodontic Assistant 😊 and there are different ways to get your RDA certificate. You could go to a 12-16 week dental assistant school near you (what I did) OR You can take an online course, or maybe your college has a dental assistant program (but those take longer to complete and generally cost more money)
