Attending “Charlotte Dental Assistant School” was a great experience that provided me with a strong foundation in dental assisting. The program offered hands-on training, knowledgeable instructors, and real-world clinical experience that prepared me for a successful career in the dental field. The curriculum covered essential topics like radiography, infection control, chairside assisting, and patient care. I especially appreciated the supportive learning environment and the opportunity to gain practical skills through externships. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to start a career in dental assisting! Read less

I enjoyed the 12 week course at Charlotte Dental Assistant School - South. Instructors, Ms. Kim and Ms. Dee were nice and extremely knowledgeable. Although it’s a fast paced course; they took their time teaching and making sure we were confident walking into our new role as a Dental Assistant. I would recommend this school 100%. Read less

Firstly I want to say this course was phenomenal! The patience and dedication all the way from the success coordinators to the instructors speaks volumes. I expected it to be a normal Hybrid course, but boy was I wrong. The more questions and concerns I had the more they were able to offer. Being it’s 12 weeks long you do have to dedicate yourself. You can’t expect to join a new curriculum and not have challenges. If Life was easy then everyone would have it that way. This Program is an introduction into Dentistry… that means you can’t blame your unsatisfied mind if you aren’t ready to CONTINUE learning. I recently Graduated on April 12th and I just got hired for a full time DA job. How you handle and hold yourself up will speak volumes about your priorities. Stop bashing courses and get into your schooling. Because if you don’t like something and don’t change that then you’re the problem. The central location in Charlotte was where I completed and I fully recommend. If you go there ask about Michael T. And Yes guys are starting to flood the dentist office so watch out:) Read less

Frequently Asked Questions

We don't accept financial aid, but we have some pretty great reasons why! The founder of our school, Dr. Ince, wanted to create an opportunity for those who desire to enter the field. He believed that students deserve not only a great education but also an affordable and convenient option. Rather than making our school more expensive in order to allow for financial assistance, Dr. Ince chose to keep tuition affordable, giving our students the opportunity to graduate with little to no student loan debt. If none of our payment plan options work for you, please give us a call. We are more than happy to customize a plan!
