Click "Create Instance".

Fill out the form to create a database.

It may take several minutes for the database to be created.
Once created, the database will be listed on the "Instances" page, https://dashboard.dartmouth.edu/database/instances/ and the "Status" column will be "READY".
To the right of the database "Name" field, place a check mark in the box, and then in the upper right, click "CONNECT".

A box will pop up with connection information.
This information can be used in a database manager, such as DBeaver, or in code to connect to the database.
Here is a snapshot of a connection from a database manager (DBeaver) to a database.

From the database manager, SQL tools can be used to create tables, and import and export tools are available. Right-click any table schema and choose "Import" to open up the import wizard tools. To make data import easier, save files in comma-separated format (CSV), and use UTF-8 encoding if possible.
For MySQL or MariaDB databases, there is web-based database administration tool available known as PHPMyAdmin: https://pma.dartmouth.edu
