New Lexington Dental Assistant School Launching August 2025

This new dental assistant program in Lexington offers students debt-free career training, hands-on experience and certification in just 12 weeks.

LEXINGTON, KY, UNITED STATES, August 20, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Lexington Dental Assistant School is thrilled to announce the opening of its new location. Starting August 2025, aspiring dental professionals in Lexington, Kentucky have a new allied healthcare option: a 12-week dental assistant program that includes in-person, hands-on training in a real dental office. Conveniently located at 1508 Oxford Dr, Georgetown, KY 40324, the school aims to educate aspiring dentistry workers on the skills and certification they need to become dental assistants.

“Our program will help local healthcare employers better serve their communities, while allowing students to graduate debt-free and begin a career in the dental field,” said Nancy West, Program Manager of Lexington Dental Assistant School.

Lexington’s newest dental assistant school prepares students to work alongside other professionals in the dental field, through a curriculum that helps students graduate debt-free in 12 weeks. Students participate in onsite, hands-on labs through a local dental partner clinic. They conclude the certification with an 80-hour externship, one that allows learners to work under the direct guidance of experienced dental professionals in Kentucky.

The goal is to make hands-on, dental assistant training accessible while helping students to graduate debt-free and save tens of thousands of dollars compared to traditional training options. To accomplish this goal, Lexington Dental Assistant School offers flexible payment options. Students can choose to pay in full or choose from a variety of plan options. Students can also work with the school to create a custom payment plan that aligns with their budget and needs.

By attending Lexington Dental Assistant School, students will grow industry-ready in weeks, developing skills in office sterilization, dental anatomy and physiology, radiography, dental instruments, and digital charting. Additionally, students train on administration skills in billing and coding, maintaining patient electronic health records, and general office management.

“We believe every community deserves access to high-quality, hands-on career training, and we’re proud to bring that opportunity to Lexington,” said Chris Lofton, chief executive officer at Zollege. “This new school will help meet the rising need for dental professionals while opening doors for local learners.”

Once students complete their certification through Lexington Dental Assistant School, they’re eligible to find employment in a variety of dental clinics within their community.
