Summer Camps at Davidson-Davie

Step into the world of bright smiles and behind‑the‑scenes magic. In this one‑day immersive camp, students experience what it’s really like to be a dental assistant—from the first patient greeting to hands‑on clinical skills. Campers explore the differences between dental assisting and dental hygiene, practice infection control, take vital signs, and try out polishing, sealants, impressions, and instrumentation on manikins just like real trainees.

Along the way, they’ll learn what it takes to succeed in college and in the dental field, discover how to apply to the Dental Assisting program at Davidson‑Davie Community College, and even chat with current students about their journey. It’s an exciting, fast‑paced day designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and open the door to a future in dental care.
