This is better training than I’ve had in my 2 months working as an assistant

[Highsunrey]

Just do what feels comfortable to you. I’ve been an assistant for 11 years and frequently stand due to my height. I ensure to do core exercises to stay strong and stretching :) you all got this! Take care of yourselves

I just started as a DA recently and this video has helped tremendously in suction placement. Thank you!

Standing while assisting will damage your assistants body over time.

I'm on my last month of school before my externship at uei college Phoenix and i found this incredibly helpful thabk you

[SadieSchwartzbeck]

Standing during assisting is inhumane and selfish.

I just subscribed!😊 I’m going back to work after staying home for a few years raising my family. I’m a bit rusty and need all the help I can get. I can’t thank you enough for your time and help. So, again, thank you for this video and please make more like it!

Your voice over is really helpful to understand the entire procedure. One suggestion it is very stressful to stand and assit one of my friend ended up this profession coz of lower back pain arises and he needed to left this profession.

I absolutely would not stand all day and to ask that of your assistants while you’re sitting is cruel. The only time I stand is if it is a hard to reach area for me. Assistant chairs are made to go higher than the operator for a reason.

And the dentist is proud that the assistant is standing.You know that it will damage or affect the body in the long run, right?That is why they don’t advise assistant to be standing and learning to sit down

[yankylock]

Why is the suction touching the assistant's pulse at 7:51? Not hygienic for the patient and for the assistant.

[briheehee]

Dental assistant in training here! Thanks for the video, it's super informative! How long has the assistant been working with you? and how long did it take for the procedure to run so smoothly?

[Surisadai]

Me I am Dental assitant bit I l9ve to work stand up cause I have better vision and I can improve better my position and I have a great view about where I gonna put my suction without disturb the dentist

Was he supposed to polish the composite. Or some composites don’t require polishing?

[tundra]

What’s the name of the instrument he’s using after the composite gun on? 4:05

Can you upload a version with the original sound?

And also from a above the face angle too to see better

[YazmitaZ]

I would stand purely so I could see what I was doing 😂 but as you get better you know where to place things and can take seat for your poor backs sake

[biohack]

Totally confident there was adequate isolation for that composite filling? Better isolation, better the filling, no? Looked like moisture could have got in their quite easily? Curious why rubber dams around routine for composite fillings.
