Job Description

Dental Assistant

We're looking for a Dental Assistant to join our clinical team and help our patients keep great oral health, backed by four amazing doctors and a genuinely great group of people to work alongside.

We run a tight, well-organized practice — clear systems, clear expectations, everyone knowing what's next — but it's also a place where the team actually likes each other. We laugh between patients, we back each other up, and we take pride in doing things right.

Schedule: We're open five days a week (Monday–Friday, 8–5), which means a steady, predictable routine — no evenings, no weekends, and no guessing what your week looks like.

Our office is fully remodeled with modern equipment, including 3D CBCT, digital radiography, a diode laser, iTero digital scanning, and 42" TVs in every operatory.

If you've got a positive attitude and solid chairside manner, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Do

Set up and break down patient rooms, and keep instruments and operatories sterilized

Assist with fillings, crowns, endo, ortho, oral surgery, and prosthodontics

Take diagnostic x-rays and digital/iTero scans

Support hygienists with new patient diagnostics and periodontal charting

Manage lab cases start to finish — impressions, shade matching, lab slips, tracking

Prep and place temporary crowns

Keep clinical notes and charting accurate and up to date

Help patients understand their treatment and feel comfortable in the chair

What We're Looking For

1+ year of dental assisting experience

Comfortable with dental terminology and procedures

Organized, detail-oriented, and good at anticipating what's needed before it's asked

A team player with a genuine care for patients

EFDA certification a plus, not required

X-Ray certification preferred

Experience with Dentrix, iTero, and digital x-rays a plus

Job Type: Full-time Schedule: Monday–Friday, no weekends Location: In person

Full-time
