Workforce 

Support community college establishment and or expansion of dental workforce programs – including for dental auxiliaries, dental assistants, and dental hygienists in an effort to improve workforce shortage issues within the dental profession.

We know the workforce shortage is taking its toll on members. One way the NC Dental Society is helping is by educating people about careers in dentistry. We’ve created a website that explains what each dental team member does, what training is required, what work environments are available, and how much money they can make. Check it out at careers.ncdental.org.

Help spread the word by sharing postcards or full-page flyers with your patients. You never know who may be looking for a career or a career change. The NC Dental Society is offering these marketing pieces to our members, free of charge. Just fill out the form to let us know whether you would like postcards, flyers, or both – and how many.
