Karen's Vision for Dental Assistants:

"That dental assistants will achieve a level with hygienists and nurses in the eyes of dental professionals and the public. We need to make everyone aware of the importance of formal education and training. There are many on the job trained assistants who do wonderful works; just think what they could do with formal education and training."
