Answers:
i've had plenty of dental assistants. Most were trained with no college or experience. they just needed their high school degree. all they had to do was go to their local community collegee, take the 1 or two day dental radiology course and then pass the state exam.

i've had a couple EFDA's.-Expanded Function Dental Assistants. This is 1-2 years of expanded function dental assistant courses at a community college. depending on your state, you may need to take a state exam. Health Question & Answer

SHELLY,
dental assisting is not like going for dental school
Many local community schools have programs to teach and certify dental assistants.
Pre-dental coursework prior to dental school is completely different.Health Question & Answer

Not sure where you are, and the types of education. But in Canada (and US as far as I know) Dental Assisting is offered at many community and private colleges that you could enter right out of high schoolHealth Question & Answer
