Lincoln Tech's Dental Assistant Schools teach you how to provide service with a smile to dental patients. Dental Assistants ensure procedures are performed smoothly, efficiently and comfortably.

Dental Assistant training prepares students to sit for the Radiation Health and Safety (RHS) and Infection Control (ICE) portions of the Certified Dental Assistant (CDA) exam. Through our program, students receive a well-rounded foundation in Dental Assisting.

What our Dental Assistant School has to offer you

Lincoln’s hands-on Dental Assistant training program puts the tools you need to succeed in your hands. You’ll get a true feel for working in simulated dental settings during class. This means you'll be doing the things a Dental Assistant does even before you start your first job.

As a Dental Assistant, you’re not just a team member – you’re an advocate for proper dental care, and you can impact the wellness of the patients you serve. You're the smiling and friendly face that people come to know at the dentist's office.
