Erin Hendricks, DA, CCHW

Erin Hendricks, DA, CCHW, spent 35 years as a dental assistant in the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia area, starting her journey with the US Air Force; she says nothing says "precision" like military training. As the president-elect of the ADAA and a guest speaker at Yankee Dental Congress 2024 and SmileCon 2025, Erin is able to share her passion for the dental assisting profession. When she’s not advocating for dental assistants, she’s either perfecting a smokey eye (makeup is her side gig) or reposting hilarious memes on social media.
