I just feel like you should be able to ask for what pay that you need. Dental assisting is a lot of work especially in a busy office. If they aren’t able to get it, cool. It’s okay to bid for what you want. Coming from a dental assistant that helped me in shadowing, he said out of his mouth to ASK for what you need and leave wiggle room to negotiate.
I have an interview with 0 experience tomorrow. No dental assistant training. Literally jump in a working interview with nothing to go off of. Hoping and praying I do okay!
How did it go ?
@@madilynrose It was good! It was actually oral surgery so different than dental. But I’m 4 months in and liking it a lot!
Me right now
How’s your interview go ? Are u working there now ?
How without a dental assistant training?
I remember watching this before I started working as a sterile assistant and here I am watching it again and I get it now !!! It is all important I’ll be graduating as a dental assistant soon !
I’m so nervous and excited for this interview, thank god I found this video!!!
Thank you! Dm us on IG if you need more help😊😊
Same 😩
Same ❤️
Thank you so much for this video!! I'm looking to get into dental assisting and have zero experience and found this so helpful in knowing how to do an interview :)
Thank you ladies!! So insightful!!
Asking to see what their schedule looks like is a yes yes yes! I made the mistake by not doing so at my previous office and boy oh boy 😅 It was a factory up in there and that just wasn’t my ish.
Thank you for these interview reminders! I’m just watching these as motivation for when I want to work as a dental hygienist. I am starting school soon.!
currently watching this the morning of my interview for my dental assistant program! I appreciate this video, calm my nerves a tad at 3:20am!
Glad to hear that! Good luck in your program!
Thank you for this video! I have an interview tomorrow for an orthodonic assistant position and this put me at ease and calmed my nerves a bit! Hope I get the job 😫🙏
I love this video I always come back to it when I get an interview for a new office. I watched this last year before I moved to Las Vegas from California
Your videos are so informative! Thank you for taking the time to teach us! 🙏🌹
So glad I came across your video! I’m getting back in the field and have an interview in the morning. I’m always super awkward and forget my brain during interviews lol. Y’all definitely have me ready and touched on the most important topics.
Thank you! How did the interview go?
I watched this video yesterday because I was so nervous about my first DA interview with no dental experience. I am waiting to start the dental hygiene program and really wanted to get into dental assisting in the meantime, thanks to you guys!!!
I got a job interview with a dental office that I job shadowed today! I’m so excited! Thank you for this video!
Thank you ladies this video is great. You spick and explain everything very clear. For sure this video is going to help me a lot for my next interview.
Gonna go to my work interview today and this video definitely making me feel confident
You guys are the bomb! 💥💥
You guys are awesome! Thank you so much for the tips 🤗
Thank you for your kind words 😊😊
A lot of dental assistant channels are created by one person, but I LOVE that you two work together on the channel! You're so fun, and it's helpful to see you two share different perspectives and add on information to what the other person is saying.
Thank you 🦷💕
Yes please make a vid on cover letters ✉ 💗
I have an interview today, watching the video and learning new stuff, it’s new for me. No experience whatsoever. Let’s see how it goes.
I hope I watch this earlier, but thanks I wasn’t so late ♥️
Very helpful & informative video, thank you ladies 😊
awesome worked for a dentist wanted full control so learning more
Thank you guys those very important tips you gave there Have worked for a couple of offices before the pandemic when after I finished my program that I saw all these red flags and really low balled me cos I was fresh out of school it made really down and left during the pandemic and now am going back into the workforce hoping to find my dental home. Thank you again.
Thank you for the love! 🥰🥰 We hope this time around you’re able to find a better dental office 🙏🏼 reach out any time! Good luck!
I have interview for dental assistant I'm so nervous but by watching your video now I'm fill good and so ready
I’m so glad I found you guys, I’m from Germany and I’m moving to the states soon, I’ve been a dental assistant for about 5 years and I’m trying to figure out how it will be over there, so thank you for this video😍
🥰
Love this video 💖 You guys hit on some many excellent points. I just left a job that wasn't a good fit. First, No lunch break! I was told to grab lunch when it slows down. I was the only assistant working with two doctors. So my last straw was when I had to do like 11 plus FMS back to back, adults and children using an adult size x-ray sensor on children. smh. The scheduling receptionist who worked from her home had no care or consideration as to how she was scheduling appointments. CrAZy !
Oh hell no!
So thankful for your videos! I got a job at a dental office with no experience thanks to your videos! Super helpful and informative! 😊
We are glad to help! 🙂
Where do you get your scrubs? I’m having a hard time finding nice fitting ones…. Thanks!
This helped me get the job! Thank you to both of you. 💖💖
Yay! Congrats
Yes please to a sample of a resume and a cover letter! Thank you for making this video! I am in the process of interviews and they can be so stressful!
🥰
Im beyond nervous lmao. I’m moving next summer to Florida to take dental assistance course. I received a call about the interview for the fall 2024 courses. Once I send my application in they will interview me. I don’t know what to say since I’m new to this. I decided to take a different direction & challenge myself. Hopefully when the time comes I’ll let y’all know how it went. Wish me luck!
Good luck !! Any updates?
Thank you girls so much !!!!!
🥰🥰
The technology question is so good because when I first moved to vegas and my first office was a corporate, they had digital x-rays but their charts were basically a packet and they never really entered anything into the computer. It was so tedious. I left after a week and a half. I know some use routing slips which is good it’s just one paper and I can write down then type into the computer. Helps if the Dr is talking fast and you not a fast typer
You guys are awesome , I haven’t been in the office since 2013 & I want get back at it but super nervous & you guys make me feel so comfortable. I plan to apply to the office where my kids & I get treated . They know me well & I definitely have experience with people !! I’m so ready now & the dr I want to work for also tells me that they’ll train you while you wrk 🤞🏽😊🙏🏽
Good luck 🙂🙂
I'm right there with you. 2010 when i left. 2020 one working inteview and i was so rusty. I'm trying to get back in the field I'm so nervous, i just need a chance and about 6 months to be reacquainted.
How's it going?.
Watching for my tomorrow’s interview…wish me luck and thanks in advance for the tips. Most videos like this one pls 👏 (cover letters and resumes will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL) ❤️🦷
Good luck!!
Yes I need a good example of both and see your profolio
I got hired my first job thank you so much for the tips and for explaining what to expect it was extremely helpful.
👏🏼👏🏼
That’s a good point. I can’t work at office whos equipment is out of date with films. Etc. I’d definitely decline. They don’t spend time on it in school like that
Thank you for sharing this! I have a question how many levels are to study to be a dental assistant?
Thank you ladies so much🙂
You’re very welcome!
thank you so much you girls are very helpful. I am an RDA sense 2002 and have been out of Dentistry for 10 years so up to date on Dentrix been watching multiple videos . I have Big Interview tomorrow and a struggle probably nervous. I have skills but forgot some and dont know how to present that in fear they pick someone else HELP
Welcome back to dentistry! Just make sure you do research on the office you are interviewing so you can reference back saying like “I see you do this tx and I used to love assisting on that”. Also let them know why you want to go back into dentistry, how much you love it and are ready to learn new things. Good luck!

I always watch your videos. It's really helpful and informative. Keep it up.
Heading In for an interview tomorrow! Very nervous as I have not been in the office for about a year!! Just keep telling myself you got this and if it’s meant to be it will be.
Just trust yourself! Hopefully our tips will help you! Good luck!
@@DentalVibes I loved the scheduling question! I’m definitely going to be asking that😊 thanks so much for this ladies!
I’m so nervous. I have an interview tomorrow and i cant sleep hahah. I have zero experience… i never went to dental assisting school because i’m going to do a dental hygiene program at my college which starts next year. So i figured i would work in the mean time… but my absolute lack of experience is terrifying! 😭
How did it go?
@@DentalVibes It went well!! Much less formal than I expected, to be honest. I'm glad I got that interview experience, thank you! :)
Hey 💕 I was wondering if you can do a video on what to do after dental assistant?
Like what position you can transition from dental assisting?
Am still in dental school and am trying to find a work within that area so thank you guys for these information it was well put together. Also I don’t have any hands on to the job just information if you know what I mean 😅
Will you get to do an externship during your program?
@@DentalVibes no
Strength, I can work great with others.
Weakness, i don't like to work with others. 😅😂
😂😂
I graduated in 2021 and I have worked in 2 places but they decided not to keep me 😢I’m still looking but now I need to get my cpr/bls cert updated
I have my first interview at a dental office tomorrow. I been out of practice for two years😳😳 yes I Kno. I will try these tips. Good tho.
Good luck!
Thank you so much!
Your Videos are so helpful. What do you have to wear at work?
In Germany you have always to wear white trouslers at work in a dental office. Is it with you too? These are the best informations for dental assistants and beginners in the dentistry. Best greetings.👍😄😊
Thanks for the love! We wear scrubs and a lab jacket
@@DentalVibes Thank you 👍👍👍
Omg I need help with the cover letter!!
Dm us on IG
Thank you email and follow up tips?
Can you please do a resume and cover letter video ?
We will 🙂
yes please do a cover letter
Yes please to the sample resume/cover letter/portfolio video.Thank you guys so much for all you do I truly appreciate you both!
In my area and the surrounding 'burb cities, there's a shortage of assistants and RDAs haha
Oh yeah, I think our entire State of Florida has a shortage of DAs
Watching with an interview tomorrow, so nervous 😭
Good luck!
@@DentalVibes I got the job! thank you guys so much you have no idea how much this video, and literally all your videos help me! I swear without your videos I would be so lost lol
@@Aureaa0824 yayyy! You did it!!!! Congrats 🙂🦷
What about video interviews?
Do not accept a starting wage lower then $ 20.00 a hour because if you do trust and believe it will take you ten plus years in most offices to even earn $ 15.00 a hour .
We disagree! If you have zero to no dental knowledge you can’t demand big $$. A lot of DAs worked their asses off to improve and got immediate raises
@@DentalVibes $ 20.00 is not even big money what la la land are you living in ? Do some damn research . The average middle class income is $ 78 k a year to live comfy no not rich now in the USA .$ 20 is not even class to a average middle class wage ..LOL And no most DA's do not get immediate raises when they work their asses off and no I'm not saying it doesn't happen , a lot DA's that have been in the field and it took them ten plus years to make $ 15.00 a hour and had to pull tooth and nail to earn raises . Just like most dentists don't give a rat ass if DA's earn all these certs And no you cant just walk off the streets asking for $ 20.00 now if you been assisting for a year than yes ask for $ 20..00 . but like I said $ 20.00 isn't even close to a decent wage plus most DA's dont even earn close to $ 45 k a year, but yet DA's are taken on more and more . A majority of Americans make less than $20 per hour for that matter . I'm not trying to sound like a jackass but please do your research . So many DA's are leaving the field because of the wages and how they are treated . Matter of fact I know the state of Oregon was on the news begging for DA's because of the DA shortage . DA's are tired of the foolishness
In Miami they start at $10 / $12 in a lot of practices and you must be an EFDA, I'm not saying it's ok but it's the reality.
@@krisb3939 You sound saltyyyyy! Sending positive vibes your way 😅
@@DentalVibes , I rather sound salty , than asinine .
What do you think the Dollar $ amount of pay , for a Entry level DA is ?
It’s really hard to put a dollar amount on someone’s skills. It all depends on location, skills, and how much training is still required
What if you have no experience but got offered a position? How do you prepare for that?! :)
Oh man! Buckle up 😅 it’s going to be a lot thrown at you very fast. Check out our videos on X-rays, alginate impression, temporary crowns, bleaching trays, pretty much watch all our videos lol. It’s going to be a lot. Bring in a pocket notepad and take photos of the set ups. Good luck 🙂🦷
@@DentalVibes same i have no experience but i have an interview tomorrow
Same! I’m so nervous!!
I have an interview next week and I need some confidence 🥲 I only have 6 months of ortho, like only braces and this is a general office. I know that they’re opening to training, I’m just so nervous because what do they expect out of me during the working interview if I don’t know anything?😢 I’ve been watching videos and hopefully God works my hands, Lol
Watch our video on Working Interviews and Composite Set up. You got 6mos of experience, you know sterilization, you know how a dental office flows and you know how to work with patients! Trust yourself! Show that you are a team player and eager to learn!! Good luck!
How did it go ? I have recently started dental assisting in a general practice
Still don’t know what to say for “tell me about yourself “ if i barley have any experience
Tell them about yourself literally. Where you are from, what you like to do for fun, how was your da program, etc
Do a cover letter
What if your currently a care giver and can’t work right now?
Not sure what you’re asking…if you’re not available to work right now then interviews shouldn’t be in the books for you
What are your opinions on dentists who work alone? I went to an interview and this dentists said he's there alone! No receptionist no assistant nothing is that legal and should I continue with the interview process 🤔
Super weird! We would run 🏃🏻♀️
@@DentalVibes yea I figured. My current dental office turned so toxic but I'll try to stick it out until I find something I feel comfortable in. This dentist I interviewed with texted me saying it was nice to meet me and do a working interview with no patients ...
@@marieschrader9150 you got this! Keep looking
Please y’all how can I over come anxiety during interviews I really need your help
The more prepared you are, the more confident you will feel! Let us know if you have specific questions!
@@DentalVibes please can I talk to you privately?😣🙏
Im scared because I have 5 butterflies on my hand and they’re visible 🥲 even if I wear long sleeve.
You should be ok. Wear the long sleeve if you have any on your arms.
Carla! Are you Brazilian?😂
Hi guys I hope are you well tomorrow I have an interview please let me know some Clinique ask me what procedure do you use in your office and I don’t know what should I say please help me they are ask me what kind of procedure do you use in your office but I don’t know the answer please help me
Sorry for the delay… How did it go?
How to be come a dental assistant in canada eligibility age limit india student are eligibility in this course tell me
Hello! We are not sure
@@DentalVibes tell me ma some word talk to u mam pls give me what's up number pls mam
I have adhd and pcos and my attention is all over the place if I don’t take my meds. Do you tell your disability to the interviewer.
Punched in the throat lol
Don't mind I am not good at English speaking
More dental offices are working through lunch hour and eating in between patients. All about the mighty dollar 💸
Well it’s up to you to tolerate that 🤷🏻♀️
interview tmrw!!!
