What is an RDA Temp?

RDA Temp refers to a Registered Dental Assistant who works on a temporary or contract basis, often filling in for permanent staff at dental offices. These professionals perform typical dental assistant duties, such as preparing patients, sterilizing instruments, assisting dentists during procedures, and maintaining patient records. RDA Temps are valuable for dental practices that need coverage for vacations, sick leave, or staffing shortages. Working as an RDA Temp can offer flexibility and the chance to gain experience in a variety of dental office environments.
