* The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts employment is expected to grow 25 percent through 2022. This is much faster than the average for all occupations (11 percent). In plain numbers, the BLS predicts 74,400 dental Assistant jobs will be added between 2012 and 2022. ** There are several reasons the need for dental assistants is increasing.
