🦷 THANK YOU, Brandi, Jessica, Abby, Becky and Bri for your hard work and dedication to our patients! 🩷

We are lucky to have an amazing group of dental assistants at Breese Dental Group. This week we spotlight our dental assistants and their role in your dental care.

One of the remarkable aspects of a dental assistant’s job is their versatility. They are the chameleons of the dental office, seamlessly transitioning between roles. Here’s a glimpse into their day-to-day responsibilities:

Patient Care: Dental assistants are often the first point of contact for patients. They play a vital role in making patients feel comfortable and at ease, explaining procedures, answering questions, and providing post-care instructions. Their empathy and communication skills are unmatched, making them indispensable in creating a positive dental experience.

Clinical Support: In the treatment room, dental assistants are the dentist’s right hand. They prepare and sterilize instruments, assist in dental procedures, manage infection control protocols, and ensure that the treatment area is organized and efficient. Their clinical skills and attention to detail contribute to the smooth ex*****on of dental treatments and patient safety.

Dental assistants are the unsung heroes of the dental world. Their comprehensive skill set, combined with their compassionate approach to patient care, makes them an invaluable asset to any dental practice.

Dental bridges replace missing teeth. They can restore chewing function, enhance your appearance and improve your oral health. A dental bridge consists of crowns (that fit over your natural teeth on either side of the space) and artificial teeth (that “bridge the gap” in your smile). There are different types of dental bridges, depending on your needs and preferences.
