Pediatric Dental Assistant School (PDAS)

Create Your Own Pipeline of Future Team Members

Finding qualified pediatric dental team members has become one of the biggest challenges facing pediatric dental practices—especially larger practices and those with multiple locations.

Imagine never having to wonder where your next great team member will come from.

The Pediatric Dental Assistant School (PDAS) Licensing Program gives you a proven blueprint for creating your own Pediatric Dental Assistant School within your practice—allowing you to develop a continuous pipeline of trained future team members while strengthening your practice.

How the PDAS Began

One of my least favorite parts of owning a pediatric dental practice was hiring staff.

Advertising. Interviewing. Hoping I’d make the right choice. Then discovering three to six months later that the new hire wasn’t the right fit—and starting all over again.

Sound familiar?

Finding a well-trained pediatric dental assistant was even harder. In fact, the only time I found one was pure luck. She had recently moved to the area after being trained in another pediatric dental practice.

That experience sparked an idea.

Why couldn’t I create my own pipeline of future pediatric dental assistants?

That’s exactly what I did.

The Pediatric Dental Assistant School not only helped other pediatric dental practices find outstanding team members, it gave me the opportunity to observe students over several weeks and hire the very best for my own practice.

Instead of hoping I hired the right person, I already knew them.

Why Pediatric Dentists Choose to License the PDAS Program

Licensing the PDAS Program does much more than help solve your staffing challenges.

It transforms the way you recruit, train, and grow your team while creating an additional source of practice income.

With your own Pediatric Dental Assistant School, you can:

Create a continuous pipeline of future pediatric dental assistants and administrative team members.
Generate additional income without spending more time at the chair.
Conduct classes on Saturdays, allowing your practice to continue its normal weekday schedule without disrupting production or profitability.
Use your existing office, equipment, and systems to train future team members.
Have your own team serve as instructors, teaching students the way your practice operates.
Provide your instructors with an opportunity to earn additional income outside of their regular work schedule.
Observe students over several weeks before making hiring decisions instead of relying on a single interview.
Benefit from your instructors’ recommendations because they’re the ones working closely with students and can identify those who have the skills, attitude, work ethic, and personality that best fit your office culture.
Hire graduates who already know your systems, your equipment, your procedures, and your expectations.
Make onboarding faster and easier because your team has already trained the new employee and is personally invested in helping them succeed.

Instead of hoping your next hire is the right fit, you’ll have the opportunity to develop future team members from the very beginning—creating a stronger team, a stronger culture, and a stronger practice.

It’s a Win-Win for Your Practice and Your Students

The benefits of owning and operating a Pediatric Dental Assistant School are many, but the most immediate payoff is creating a continuous pipeline of well-trained future team members while reducing the stress, cost, and uncertainty of hiring.

Students actually pay tuition to be trained by you and your team.

Read that again.

They pay to learn your systems, your procedures, and your standards—all while hoping they may have the opportunity to become part of your team.

Over several weeks, you and your instructors have the opportunity to observe each student’s attitude, work ethic, communication skills, and ability to fit your office culture.

Then you decide whether to offer them a position.

There is no obligation to hire anyone. Students are there to receive exceptional training. You simply gain the unique advantage of getting to know potential future team members long before making a hiring decision.

It’s truly a win-win.

Students receive outstanding pediatric dental assistant training, while your practice gains a continuous source of well-prepared future team members who already understand how your office operates.
