David and Patti Bradley, owners of Lake Oconee Dentistry, are opening a training school for anyone interested in becoming a dental assistant. Assist to Succeed Lake Oconee is currently enrolling students for a new 12-week session, which begins\u00a0April 7<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many people find it difficult to break into dental assisting because the available programs are too expensive and take too long,\u201d says Dr. David Bradley. \u201cAssist to Succeed is a 12-week program that is held on Saturdays, which makes the training more convenient, efficient and economical for people looking to start a new career.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Assist to Succeed curriculum gives students hands-on training to become a successful dental assistant. Students receive 80 hours of lecture and lab with a practicing dentist in a fully-operational dental office. Additionally, students will also be able to learn and observe procedures at specialty offices. Students will earn their Georgia radiology certification and CPR certification as part of the course.<\/p>\n<p>The Saturday classes will be held from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Lake Oconee Dentistry office, located off Highway 44 in Greensboro, between the Publix parking lot and the movie theater. The dental assisting school is certified through the state of Georgia Non-Public Post Secondary Education Commission.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our graduates will be able to get a job dental assisting because they will have hands-on experience working with patients,\u201d says Dr. Bradley. \u201cOur ultimate goal is to get them hired, and we\u2019re going to give them the tools they need to help make that happen.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nAssist to Succeed Lake Oconee will be holding an informational open house on Wednesday, March 21<sup>st<\/sup>\u00a0at 6 p.m., at the Lake Oconee Dentistry office.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Those interested in attending the open house should call\u00a0<span class=\"ClickablePhoneNumber\">706-347-2635<\/span>\u00a0to reserve your spot, as space is limited.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Those who attend the open house are eligible for $500 off tuition. Tuition includes books and supplies.<br \/>\n<\/strong><em><br \/>\nDrs. David and Patti Bradley opened Lake Oconee Dentistry in 1998. Since then, the practice has grown to include four dentists and 23 team members.\u00a0In addition to providing standard preventive maintenance exams and professional cleanings, Lake Oconee Dentistry offers short-term orthodontics, cosmetic enhancements, dental implant placement and restoration, teeth whitening,\u00a0and oral appliances for snoring and sleep apnea. \u00a0Lake Oconee Dentistry is\u00a0proud to be recognized as the area&#8217;s &#8220;Best Dentist&#8221; by readers of\u00a0The Lake Oconee Breeze\u00a0for six\u00a0years running.
