Why Choose A Career In The Dental Industry?
According to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of dental assistants is expected to grow 11% over the next 10 years – faster than the average job growth of many other industries. New and ongoing evidence suggests an important link between a person’s overall health and their oral health. Because of this, demand for dental-related services is expected to stay strong for years to come. Dental offices in Georgia and other states must meet this projected demand. As such, the need for trained dental assistants will continue to grow.
As Baby Boomers grow older and as more men and women practice good oral hygiene, the need to treat and maintain one’s teeth will lead to an increased need for quality dental care. Over the next decade, the Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests that nearly 24,000 new dental assisting jobs will be created. That means the future is bright for any student who has been educated through our dental assisting courses in Atlanta.

What Does A Dental Assistant Do?
As a professional dental assistant, you will be tasked with managing a wide range of administrative and clinical responsibilities at a dental office. Dental assistants play a crucial role in the day-to-day workflow involved in a dental practice. They work alongside hygienists and dentists to provide patients with the highest quality oral care in the state of Georgia.
Common dental assistant job duties may include:
- Assisting in the lab
- Sterilizing dental equipment and tools
- Ordering and organizing supplies for their dental office
- Help perform x-rays
- Maintain and organize patient dental records
- Perform coronal polishing for patients
- Provide fluoride treatments for patients
- Help educate patients about how to maintain their oral health
- Help educate patients about best practices relating to proper oral hygiene
- Providing assistance to dentists and hygienists during cleanings
- Greet patients and make them feel comfortable
- Collect important info from new and existing patients
Why Attend a Dental Assisting School In Atlanta, GA?
They say the best way to predict the future is to create it, and that is exactly what you will be doing when you enroll at Assisting 101. We believe in getting our students ready for a lifelong career, not just a job that pays the bills. When you attend our award-winning dental assisting school, you are investing in a future rich with opportunity.
Unlike other workers who choose not to attend school for legitimate training, our students enjoy a quick start in a vibrant job market where financial and personal growth are common. When you become a dental assistant after graduation, you will have confidence knowing you are well-prepared for a life-changing career.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE MOST COMMON REASONS WHY OUR STUDENTS SAY THEY CHOOSE TO ATTEND OUR DENTAL ASSISTING SCHOOL:
WORK IN AN EVER-GROWING INDUSTRY
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics recently reported that job growth for dental assistants is growing at a faster rate than most other industries. This bodes well for our students, who will have job security as they navigate the workforce. In a time where many jobs are being replaced by robotics and other technological advances, the skills that you learn at Assisting 101 can help you for the rest of your life.
FULFILLING BALANCE BETWEEN LIFE AND WORK
The work/life balance in the U.S is a problem. Spending every waking hour at the office instead of home with family can be draining at best and depressing at worst. Unlike other professionals, dental assistants typically enjoy normal working hours during the business week. That means they have more free time to dedicate to their children and families.
ABILITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
When you are a dental assistant, you plan a crucial role in your dental office. But as an ambassador of the profession, you also help educate patients about the benefits of good oral hygiene. Given the ties between heart health and oral health, you are making more of a difference than you might realize.
OPPORTUNITY FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH
When students graduate from Assisting 101 and accept a job as a dental assistant, many choose to make it their lifelong career. For others, the role of dental assistant is just the beginning – a steppingstone to a role with more responsibility. After only a few years as a dental assistant in Atlanta, the chance to become a manager or supervisor will become much more likely. The sky is the limit!

Four-county metro Atlanta area in spotlight again with Rivian plant

An electric vehicle manufacturing plant could be the latest feather in the cap for economic developers in the Covington area east of Atlanta.
Rivian is in talks to develop a site near the point where Morgan, Newton and Walton counties converge along I-20, representing one of Georgia’s biggest development projects in years, according to people familiar with the matter.
If the EV plant happens, it would be heading to an area that’s already home to several large new developments, any one of which would be considered a major victory for a local community.
The Joint Development Authority (JDA) of Jasper, Morgan, Newton and Walton Counties and individual county development authorities have, in the past six years, lured Takeda, SK Group and Facebook from the pharmaceutical, semiconductor and technology sectors.
This year has been particularly busy. SK said last month it will build a $473 million plant in Covington to make glass parts for computer chips. Facebook plans to invest up to $3.4 billion in data centers at an industrial park near Social Circle, more than triple its initial plans, according to a JDA agreement earlier this year.
The four-county agency’s success is a product of having plenty of undeveloped land suitable for a large industrial development, plus a group of leaders from different jurisdictions who are willing to work together, said Alvin Nash, a board member of the Georgia Economic Developers Association.
In other similar multijurisdictional partnerships, leaders from rival counties often fight amongst each other, he said. That doesn’t appear to have happened here.
“It’s not just the land but the willingness of the communities to work together,” said Nash, a private consultant who’s not involved in the Rivian project.
The four counties had a combined estimated population in 2020 of about 244,300, according to the U.S. Census. Newton is the largest with about 113,300 residents.
Rivian did not respond to requests for comment. Last week, the Irvine, California-based company said in a statement that it’s “in discussions with multiple locations as part of a competitive process for siting a second manufacturing facility.”
Cox Enterprises, owner of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, owns a 4.7% stake in Rivian and supplies services to Rivian. Sandy Schwartz, a Cox executive who oversees the AJC, is on Rivian’s board of directors and holds stock personally. He does not take part in the AJC’s coverage of Rivian.
Rivian is likely to have zeroed in on a site along the north side of I-20, between the cities of Covington and Madison, according to economic development experts. That corridor includes several separate parcels zoned for industrial development, according to a site selection database maintained by Georgia Power.
One parcel, a 1,978-acre lot marketed as the “East Atlanta Megasite,” is one of the largest available industrial sites in the state. The site could be expanded with adjacent sites, including some that are privately owned, to create an even-larger industrial property.
“There’s a ton of vacant land out there” that’s prime for industrial development, said David Kahn, a managing analyst at real estate data provider CoStar Group.
Most of the sites, about 45 miles east of Atlanta, are owned by local development authorities. That’s more appealing to companies than having to negotiate a purchase from a private owner, said Anthony Burnett, a senior vice president of site development at brokerage Colliers.
A local development “authority can offer the land for free or for a very low cost and there’s usually already an electric substation and water and sewer there,” said Burnett, who’s not involved in the project.
Andrea Gray, attorney for the JDA of Jasper, Morgan, Newton and Walton Counties, declined to comment. David Thompson, chairman of the Walton County Board of Commissioners, also declined to comment. The chairmen of the Morgan, Newton and Jasper County commissions did not respond to requests for comment.
One large site is owned by Alan Verner, the retired chairman of the JDA of Jasper, Morgan, Newton and Walton Counties. Verner previously operated his family’s farm on the acreage. He did not respond to calls seeking comment.
The industrially zoned sites have some logistical advantages. All have direct access to I-20 and are about 33 miles east of I-285 in metro Atlanta.
The sites also have important rail connections, including a link to Commerce, where SK Battery America is building a $2.6 billion plant. Rivian plans to purchase EV batteries from SK.
A branch railroad line connects Commerce to two separate main freight rail lines, according to OpenRailwayMap. The branch line crosses I-85 about one mile southwest of the SK plant. The Social Circle industrial properties have a direct connection to a CSX rail line.
The rail lines have different owners but railroad companies frequently share trackage rights, said Tom Crosson, a spokesman for Norfolk Southern.
Metro Atlanta job growth strong, unemployment rate at record low

The metro Atlanta economy added 40,700 jobs last month, three times the typical pre-pandemic growth, the government reported Thursday.
With the economy steadily regaining its pre-pandemic traction, holiday spending strong and travel rebounding, the hiring was energetic in a range of sectors during October, according to the Georgia Department of Labor.
Moreover, September’s data was revised to show even stronger growth in Atlanta than previously thought.
The unemployment rate, which had already dropped to an all-time low of 2.5% in September, dipped in October to 2.4%.
And critically — since the headline unemployment rate only includes people looking for work — that rate decreased while the pool of jobseekers grew, said Labor Commissioner Mark Butler. “We are continuing to see all-time low unemployment rates across the state while also seeing job growth.”
Metro Atlanta’s labor force, which includes all those with jobs or looking for one, is 25,000 smaller than it was before the pandemic. But it increased in October by 15,425. And the number of unemployed — that is, those actively looking for work — fell to its lowest level since May 2001, Butler said.
Nationally, jobless claims last week fell to their lowest level in decades, according to the Employment and Training Administration. In Georgia, claims fell to 4,249 during the week — the lowest level statewide since late 2019, said the DOL.
Metro Atlanta’s most-common job openings have been in seasonally affected sectors like logistics where warehouse and material movers are needed, but there is also intense demand in health care, said Sue Arthur, chief executive of employment website CareerBuilder. “Registered nurses are one of the most in-demand jobs in the metro Atlanta area.”
Last month, health care added 8,300 jobs in the region.
The region’s recovery from the massive job losses in the early weeks of the pandemic is still not complete. Metro Atlanta’s economy has added back 353,500 jobs, but remains 28,000 jobs shy of its level in February 2020.
If history is a guide, the recovery will continue.
In Novembers past, the jobless rate has typically dropped and jobs have been added as retailers and logistics companies go full-tilt handling holiday orders and shipping. In the five years before the pandemic, November averaged growth of 20,120 jobs.
But there are often fewer jobseekers than openings. Among positions where employers are struggling to find enough candidates, “health care, food prep and education ... have some of the lowest job seeker-to-opening ratios,” said CareerBuilder’s Arthur.
Many workers have kept to the sidelines, deterred by virus fears, child care needs, a desire for free time or a thirst for higher wages, she said. “People have many different reasons for not working right now.”
Metro Atlanta, often seen as the engine of Georgia’s economy, in pre-pandemic years typically accounted for more than 70% of the state’s job growth. But COVID-19 badly damaged the hospitality and travel sectors, and metro Atlanta’s recovery — while robust — has been slower than the rest of Georgia’s.
During 2021, metro Atlanta has accounted for 63% of the 155,800 jobs added across the state.

Want to get a jump on Black Friday shopping? These Georgia stores will be open on Thanksgiving Day 2021.
GEORGIA — Need a break from all the Thanksgiving turkey eating, football watching and dish washing? Here's one idea: Gather up the family and head out for an hour or two of holiday shopping at select stores in Georgia.
While a majority of stores remain closed on Nov. 25, several will be open for shoppers looking for a moment of respite amid Turkey Day festivities or those hoping to get a jump start on their Black Friday shopping.
However, don't expect all of your favorite retailers to be open this year.
In June, retail giant Walmart announced it will close all stores on Thanksgiving Day this year, a move the company said is a "thank you" to store employees for their hard work through the coronavirus pandemic.
Walmart's decision follows a similar one by competitor Target, which announced in January that stores would also close this Thanksgiving.
The two giant retailers Walmart and Target are among many companies that have faced criticism for remaining open on Thanksgiving and keeping workers from spending the holiday with their families. In response, a growing number of retailers, including Costco, Lowe's and Hobby Lobby, have started closing stores on the holiday.
Still, a number of stores remain open on Thanksgiving Day, according to lists compiled by Good Housekeeping, Country Living, NBC Chicago and more. Here are a few — and as always, it's a good idea to check your local store's hours.
Bass Pro Shops: Stores will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Big Lots: Last year, select locations were open 7 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Cabela's: Stores will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
CVS: Stores will be open on Thanksgiving, but hours may vary by location.
Dollar General: Stores will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Family Dollar: Stores will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Thanksgiving.
Five Below: Stores will be open from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Thanksgiving.
