Job Description

DENTAL ASSISTANT Wanted: Not Your Average Back Office Role

Are you the kind of dental assistant who’d rather be in the action than on the sidelines? Do you light up when you're educating patients, not just passing instruments? We are in search of a Dental Assistant to join a progressive practice in a unique role: working directly with our amazing dental hygienists as a true clinical partner. This isn’t your typical “assist the doctor and reset the room” kind of position. This is an opportunity to become an integral part of a small, efficient team where your hands-on skills and patient care talents will truly shine.

What makes this role different?

It is an innovative and out of the box position, designed to focus on the patients’ experience

It is hands in the mouth more than hands on the tray

You play a significant role in patient education, not just chairside support

Provides an opportunity to build relationships with patients without being rushed.

Who we're looking for:

A confident assistant who loves clinical work and patient interaction

Someone who thrives in a non-traditional dental setting

A curious, compassionate person who’s open to learning, collaborating, and trying new things

Bonus points if you’re passionate about prevention, wellness, and helping patients feel truly cared for

This is an opportunity to grow, stretch, and redefine what a dental assistant’s role can be. We’re not looking for “just another resume.” We’re looking for the right person to be part of something different.

Other hiring considerations:

Status: this position can be either FT or PT; benefits are available for FT w/some flexibility in hours

Salary range: $18-$30/hr

Non-negotiables: X-ray and coronal polishing certifications A MUST

Experience: minimum 1 yr
