In general, the salary of a dental administrative assistant is between $20 and $35 per hour. However, it is important to note that this figure can vary significantly.
What dental software do we learn at the end of basic training? Is it common in dental clinics?
At the end of the basic training, you will learn how to use the A.D. 2.0 dental software. This software is widely adopted by many dental clinics. It is an online platform approved by the Association of Dental Surgeons of Quebec, among others. It is important to note that the market offers a large variety of dental software, but their basic functionalities are often similar.
Mastering dental software like A.D. 2.0 provides a valuable advantage, as many clinics rely on this type of software to manage their daily operations. Additionally, basic proficiency in dental software can make it easier to transition to other software if necessary. Understanding the fundamentals of how dental software works can enable graduates to quickly adapt to other software, enhancing their professional versatility.
What is the experience like when learning to use dental software online?
Learning dental software takes place in two distinct phases: the theoretical part and practical application. The theory is presented through video capsules. After learning the theory, the students practice the software functions under the careful supervision of a dedicated teacher (by Zoom). The last stage is the free practice, when the students can access and practice directly the online dental software, without supervision.
With this practical approach, there is no need to install dental software on your computer. The theoretical resources and practical exercises are all accessible via the Internet, allowing each student to acquire the necessary skills without having to clutter their computer with complex software installations.
