The TCAT Northwest Dental Assisting students have been learning about microbiology! During this lesson, students participated in a hands-on activity by swabbing different surfaces around campus to observe how bacteria can grow in a Petri dish.
This activity allowed students to connect classroom learning with real-world examples while gaining a better understanding of microorganisms, infection control, and the importance of proper disinfection in the dental setting. The students were also excited to show off their new class T-shirts! π¦ π§«π¦·π
