How much does a dental assistant make?

It depends on where you live.


In my rurual area, they tend to start at $7 - 9/hour.


But a 20 minute drive can have you starting out at $12.00/hr.


All of these are off the street, no experience.


A friend in Charlotte NC says assistants start at $17 and go up and up depending on experience. In NC assistants have to be certified. They don't in my state.


Dental assisting is a great job. It's very rewarding, and depending on what doctor you work for can be the best job ever. My dentist always worked w/ our schedule and never gave us a hard time.


He's a diamond, though!


I hope this helps!


Happy Holidays!

I used to make $16.50, in a larger town.
Reply:I worked over the summer at a children's hospital and made $14 with no experience in a medium size city. You make less in private practice, about $10/ hour and more in hospitals $12- $18 /hour, based on experience.
