As a student at School of Orthodontic Assisting I have had the opportunity to learn hands on Orthodontic knowledge via clinicals working along side my instructors. I have gained the confidence in my abilities working in the mouth as well as handling and sterilizing equipment properly. I have accelled both academically and showcased my abilities to adapt quickly. I have demonstrated excellence in patient care and appliance preparation. My own personal orthodontic experiences have inspired me to deliver the best care possible for each and all patients in my career as an orthodontic assistant. My keen attention to detail has greatly benefited me throughout the program and will be a valuable asset in my career as an orthodontic assistant.
