Working as a dental nurse in France
Assistant dentaire has been a recognised health profession in France since 2016, so you need the title of assistant dentaire, usually prepared through a work-study programme in a practice while attending an approved training centre. A more advanced level (assistant dentaire de niveau 2) allows trained assistants to carry out some clinical tasks under the dentist's supervision. Foreign qualifications must be recognised before using the title. The British term « dental nurse » has no French nursing equivalent here.
