4 Best Dental Assistant Programs In Nashville, TN (2022 Updated)

This course was one of the best I have ever taken! The instructor Mrs. Janeane is truly an amazing teacher, she’s funny and super sweet. She makes class fun and makes sure you know and understand the material along with the labs that follow. She makes sure you feel confident and comfortable to do tasks on your own and with others in class and any kind of questions that you may have. I recommend this course to ANYONE who is looking for a dental assisting program that is both affordable and accessible.Keyra Maysonet

Attending assistant dental school of Nashville was the best decision I’ve made! Mrs. Janeane made learning fun with her excitement and how personable and caring she is. And she explains things well and makes sure everyone understands. It was a perfect mixture of lecture but also hands on. Also loved how small the class size was made it more comfortable and easy to make friends. I’m so excited to start a career as a RDA!Karen Watkins

Attending Dental Assistant School of Nashville was one of the best decisions! Our instructor Ms Janeane was amazing from the way she gave lectures to guiding us through labs and getting us prepared for our tests. I would recommend this school to anyone, and I look forward to my carrier as an RDA!Kelly Savino

As a person who has been out of school for years; being a wife and mother of two school age children, schools now a days aren’t very work and life balance friendly! I just recently moved and researching other dental assisting schools DON’T compare to Excel by any means. The small class setting, the personal one on one learning and teaching styles at Excel are PERFECT for anyone who may be in my shoes. Entering the class, I doubted myself, but after one class, I realized that I could achieve my dream that I set out years ago! The teaching instructions and teaching style from the instructor is amazing and very personable. The teaching and learning style that is presented is for all different walks of life and all learning styles! The hands on experience is one in a million! The tuition, especially for someone who is on a budget, is very affordable and the best in the state! Excel is the best dental assisting location and I am glad that I made a great decision that is my lasting career for me and my family! My dream can now finally come true because of Excel!Viola Williams

I took the local anesthetic course with Dr. Woods. Dr. Woods is an amazing instructor who is knowledgeable and caring about the information and students. I was nervous about learning the material and doing the injections, but Dr. Woods thoroughly prepared me in class and clinically. I 100% know and understand the materials as well as have the confidence to give injections. My class was small; only 2 students. I’m going to take the nitrous and laser courses here as well. 10/10!J. Mitchell

Dr. Woods is an absolutely outstanding instructor! His courses have given me an additional edge in my profession. He makes sure you understand the information given and will give extra guidance if needed. I would recommend his courses to everyone in the dental field! I know I will always go back to him for future courses even though it was over an hour drive for me because I know I am getting the best of the best hands on training.Heather Camacho

I want to give a BIG Shout out to Sherri Denton! She was one of my instructors from April-May 2022! She was always smiling and always there to help us learn the correct way of doing things. I'm Glad you have now moved to the position of Clinical Director! You will do a fantastic job at this position! I have stayed in contact with her after school and she has helped me so much and she is always positive, even if your having a hard time! This is a great school to go through if you are thinking about being a Dental Assistant. They will make sure you know what you need to know to start your career in the Dental field. Thank you DSSTN!!Holly Bess

I love my learning experience with DSSTN! All the instructors were being very helpful. You can feel that they care about you and they try their best to help you succeed as long as you put in couple hours to study everday. Especially thank Sherry, Pam and Dawn. They are great and will teach you all the little things that you need to pay attention to! You just have to put those in your mind. A small suggestion is a little more time for X-ray practice will be better IMO.Sini Huang

If you are looking to become a RDA this is the school you should pursue. The instructors make it very easy for you to succeed and give you all the tools you need. You will pass no problem with flying colors if you just put in the work yourself. It can seem like a lot of work at first but it really is not if you dedicate a bit everyday to this school.Thank you Dental Staff School of Tennessee for giving me the knowledge and tools for success!Jayden Scheller

When I started this course i knew nothing of dentistry. I’m not even finished with the course yet and i have an awesome job and am in the assistants chair working in patients mouth with confidence. This course prepares you in many ways to help you find a job even after the course is completed. They help you build a resume, gain shadowing hours, work with other students to get hands on experience, and let you know what to expect when applying and interviewing at dental offices. I have made incredible friends and love the instructors so much. They are quick to answer emails, texts, and any questions i may ever have. I highly recommend this course.Elizabeth Reyes

This program is beyond amazing. Ashley is amazing! The way she goes over everything is great. It is a fast pace class but she takes the the time to make sure you understand everything. She genuinely cares and wants you to do great. I am so pleased with everything she has done and I can not wait to be a RDA.Breanna Hughes

Attending ADAPT was the best decision I ever made! The instructors are great, you learn so much while working hands on and book knowledge. Great school and people!John Levy
