68E Dental Specialist

National Guard OMD

Job Description

If you're looking for a dental career, the Army National Guard has a rewarding role for you. As a Dental Specialist, you will help keep the fighters of our freedom healthy by providing oral hygiene treatments and instruction for dental patient care.

You will assist in the examination and treatment of patients by preparing materials and instruments, recording patient vitals, and administering anesthesia.

Job Duties
• Prepare dental operatory, select and arrange instruments, measure and record temperature, blood pressure and pulse, and assist dentist during patient exams
• Assist with placement and removal of sutures

• How to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and operate resuscitative equipment

Helpful Skills
• Interest in biology and chemistry
• Enjoy helping others
• Good hand-eye coordination
• Ability to follow spoken instructions and detailed procedures
