Dear Hiring Manager,

 I am reaching out regarding the application for the full-time Expanded Function Dental Assistant position. Please accept this application from a determined, eager-to-learn, and knowledgeable candidate. I’m confident that I will be an asset to your team.

I have been a dental assistant for 3 years and have recently graduated from the EFDA program at Harrisburg Area Community College. I also graduated from the dental assisting program from YTI which is where I obtained most of my certifications, which you can view under the licenses/certifications tab of my portfolio.

 My job responsibilities include taking x-rays (both digital and film), fabricating crowns and retainers, sterilization, completing restorations, using an itero scanner, as well as coronal polishing and fluoride treatments. I am familiar with dexis but having attention to detail and being a fast learner, I can get comfortable with any program in a timely manner. I also have a wide variety of skills and chairside manners due to working in both pediatric and general departments.

I am prepared for this position and hope that you will allow me to further discuss my qualifications with you. To schedule an interview, you can reach me at the number provided. The best time to reach me is between 12:00pm to 1:00pm or 5:00pm to 8:00pm but can leave a voicemail at any time and I will get back to you.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

McKinlee Varner
