At Cosmos Dentistry, we believe in celebrating not just smiles—but the people behind them. Today, we’re honoured to recognize a very special achievement by one of our own. Our incredible Dental Assistant, Aga, has officially reached 25 years of DANB (Dental Assisting National Board) certification—a milestone that reflects her unwavering dedication, clinical excellence, and compassionate care.
For many years, Aga has been a trusted presence in our practice and a comforting, capable hand for our patients. Earning and maintaining DANB certification for a quarter of a century is no small feat. It speaks to her deep knowledge of dentistry, commitment to continuing education, and desire to provide the best care possible.
But beyond her impressive credentials, Aga brings something even more valuable to our office: heart. Patients often share how much they appreciate her calm demeanor, gentle touch, and friendly smile. Whether assisting in a complex procedure or helping a nervous patient feel more at ease, Aga brings professionalism and warmth to every interaction.
Please join us in celebrating Aga’s 25-year DANB certification—a milestone that reminds us just how lucky we are to have her on our team. Thank you, Aga, for your dedication, service, and the countless lives you’ve touched along the way. Here’s to many more years of excellence.
