Internship

As a certified Dental Assistant student, we were required to do an internship at a dental office of our choice. I did my internship at Restorative Arts Dental with Dr. G.E Rabon. He had the absolute best staff. His staff helped me learn so much about Dental Assisting. I have never felt so welcomed at an office as a student. If i had any questions Dr. Rabon would not hesitate to answer them. I also stepped in on extra days to help out, if someone were out sick.
