In addition to receiving your Dental Assistant Certificate of Completion from Mint Dental Assistant Academy, you'll also complete the BLS CPR Certification and RHS Training Course (Pre-Test Training).

Our program spans a total of seven weeks, consisting of 136 hours of lecture and hands-on clinical training. In addition to their classes, our students are required to complete a 40-hour externship at a local dental office, and qualified students will be offered an opportunity to participate in an externship at one of our MINT locations.

We require that our students have a high school diploma or GED.

A $20 non-refundable application fee is required upon submission. Eligible students may qualify for the MINT Dentistry Discount, bringing total program tuition to $3,000.

In order to offer our students federal aid, we would be forced to hold classes full-time Monday-Friday for eight months + terms. Rather than draw out our program over many months at a much greater cost to the individual student, we opted for a leaner program without federal aid. We are happy to offer interest-free payment plans to those students who cannot pay for our course upfront.

The job outlook for dental assistants is very positive! The US Bureau of Labor Statistics expects above average job growth for the dental assisting profession over the next 10 years and projects the need for more than 55,000 new dental assistants over that same time frame. Eligible students will have the opportunity for direct employment with MINT dentistry.
