Dental Assistant Recognition Week, scheduled for March 7–13, 2010, is a week-long tribute to the commitment and dedication this essential team member exhibits throughout the year. The dental assisting role continues to diversify and expand. Whether they are taking digital x-rays, working chairside with the dentist, or contributing to the success of CAD/CAM & CEREC Connect, dental assistants are vital to the success of the dental practice.

“One Team, One Goal: Improving Oral Health” is the theme for the 33rd annual Dental Assistant Recognition Week, which is sponsored by the ADA. This is the perfect time to acknowledge and recognize this versatile, multitalented member of your dental team—your Dental Assistant.

We appreciate our Dental Assistants because we recognize this vital role they play on our team! This is national DA Recognition week – what is your team doing to recognize all the hard work from your dental assistants?
