Gwinnett Dental Career Academy

Dental Assistant Program

Serving students throughout Atlanta, Gwinnett Dental Career Academy offers a Saturday-only, 10-week Dental Assisting Program designed to teach the essential skills needed for entry-level positions such as sterilization technician, hygiene assistant, or chairside dental assistant in both general and specialty dental offices.

Graduates will gain a strong foundation but will continue to learn through hands-on experience. Many may choose to take an Expanded Duties course later to further develop their skills and qualifications.

The program’s goal is to provide a stepping stone for those interested in exploring a dental assisting career—offering practical training without requiring a large investment of time or money.
