All course fees are non-refundable once payment has been made, except if Roseville Dental Academy cancels the course as described below. No refunds will be issued for cancellations, withdrawals, missed classes, failure to attend, scheduling conflicts, or failure to complete course requirements. If the student is unable to attend, their seat goes unused and their enrollment cannot be moved to another course date. Course fees may not be transferred to another individual without prior written approval from Roseville Dental Academy. If Roseville Dental Academy cancels a course, students will be offered the option to transfer to another available course date or receive a refund of the course fees paid. By submitting payment, the student confirms that they have read, understood, and accepted this Cancellation and Refund Policy.

California Dental Board guidance says unlicensed dental assistants must complete a board-approved 8-hour Infection Control course before performing basic supportive dental procedures involving potential exposure to blood, saliva, or other potentially infectious materials.

The employer. Since January 1, 2025, every unlicensed dental assistant in California, regardless of hire date, must complete a Board-approved 8-hour Infection Control course before any duties involving potential exposure to blood, saliva, or other potentially infectious materials, and the dental office is responsible for making sure that happens. The 2-hour Dental Practice Act course does not replace it. Assistants who already have proof of a Board-approved Infection Control course do not need to retake it.

Students should confirm they have current BLS, 8-hour Infection Control, and Dental Practice Act certification before registering. Admissions can also explain the manikin, written exam, and patient clinical requirements.

Yes for clinical course requirements. Roseville Dental Academy does not provide patients, so students should plan ahead and confirm the exact patient requirements for their course with the office. During clinical training, students will work under the supervision of a licensed dentist and receive hands-on experience performing clinicals on student provided patients.

The Dental Assisting Training Course is intended for students age 16 and older. Students under 18 should expect parent or guardian consent paperwork.
