🦷 Building Skills & Confidence: McKinney DAS Students Shine in Impressions, Trimming & Rubber Dam Placement

At McKinney Dental Assistant School, each week brings new breakthroughs—and our latest lab session proves it! This week, students focused on three essential skills for dental assistants: taking impressions, trimming models, and placing rubber dams. 🦷 From steady hands to focused minds, it was incredible to watch students like Kaisha, Abby, and Leslie build confidence and precision in their work—walking away with near-perfect upper models for whitening trays!

💡 What Skills Are Students Practicing?

Here’s what our McKinney AM class tackled this week:

• Creating accurate dental impressions
• Trimming dental models for clarity and usability
• Placing rubber dams for safe and isolated dental procedures
• Preparing whitening trays using upper arch models

Hands-on learning like this is key to success in any dental office—and we make sure our students are ready for it all.
