Abstract
Traditional use of two-handed dentistry has been replaced by four-handed
dentistry to provide ease and good quality oral health care services. The four-handed
dentistry involves the use of dental chair side assistant along with the dentist, which
plays a pivotal role in assisting the delivery of oral health care services. These dental
chair side assistants are being provided a certified degree that allows them to perform
specific duties and responsibilities towards their patients. The duties performed are
greeting, calming, comforting, cleaning, organizing, and dismissing the patients, and
the list further goes on. They are a big boon for every dentist as they are an integral part
of the success of the dental practice and perform their duties with pride and dignity.
