Expanded Functions in General
Tuition:
SMDS Member $390
Non-Member $445
Book Pkg $160
Overview:
Our course for the dental assistant focuses primarily on the dental assistant and his/her advancement. The goal
is to prepare the assistant to be test ready for the DANB Expanded Functions Examination. It is our
responsibility to review didactic material, while the doctor/assistant review the clinical material during the
course of the office's daily routine. A positive interaction will advance the assistant while working, and the
office can benefit from the increased ability of the assistant as he/she accomplishes more complex tasks as
outlined by the dental law. We feel this mentor type environment fosters a positive working environment for
both the doctor and assistant while accomplishing continuing education. The formal lectures and in-office
clinical experience combine the dynamics required for review and the setting to expose the assistant to new
materials required by EFDA licensure. This is a 13 week course.
Course Requirements
All clinical practice takes place at the student’s place of employment. The employing dentist must sign the
application verifying office experience, employment and a commitment of clinical support.
