Dental Assistants Recognition Week, which honors dental assistants for their role on the dental team, will be held March 7-13 this year, according to an ADA News article.
The American Dental Assistants Association, the ADA, the Canadian Dental Assistants Association, and the Canadian Dental Association jointly recognize the event.
"In this world of taking people for granted, my chairside dental assistants sometimes get near the top of the list. But then one of them gets sick, or even the knowing compliment of a patient leaving the chair reminds me of how their expert hands make our team look good every day," said Dr. Jake DeSnyder, chair of the ADA Council on Dental Practice, in the article.
The ADA is urging dental assistants and offices to describe their activities and successes throughout the week for publication in the Dental Assistant, the American Dental Assistants Association journal.
