Job Description

Aqua Blue Dental is hiring a full-time Dental Assistant to join our team in Vancouver W Broadway. We're an established general practice with a strong reputation and modern technology throughout — and we're happy to invest in a new graduate or chairside assistant with the right attitude and work ethic.

About Aqua Blue
Aqua Blue Dental is a fee-for-service general dental practice on West Broadway in the heart of Mount Pleasant, led by Dr. Reza Entezarion and Dr. Negar Rezqi Qomi (both UBC DMD). We're expanding — a new associate dentist is joining us in October — and we're bringing on additional chairside support to grow with the team.

We hold a 5-star rating across 290+ Google reviews — earned patient by patient by sweating the details and taking our work seriously.

The Role
Full-scope chairside dental assistant work supporting a team of three dentists across general, restorative, and growing implant/Invisalign practice:
Four-handed dentistry across restorative, endo, oral surgery, and implant procedures
Patient intake, chair prep, and post-op review
Digital imaging (iTero scanner, CBCT, digital radiography)
Sterilization, infection control, and OSHA compliance
Room setup, turnover, and inventory management
Chart documentation
You'd join a three-CDA team, working alongside our experienced lead CDA and treatment coordinator who will support your growth.

Who We're Looking For
CDABC registered Certified Dental Assistant preferred, or Dental Assistant with strong chairside experience
New graduates welcome — we're happy to invest in the right person
Warm, professional chairside manner — patients relax around you
Sharp attention to detail and genuine care about doing things right
Team player — CDAs, hygienists, admin, and dentists work closely here
Comfortable learning new digital tools and workflows
Multilingual capacity is welcomed given our patient base
Hours
Full-time, 32-40 hours per week including Saturdays on rotation. Saturday availability is a firm requirement of this role.

Start Date
Mid-October 2026 — we need someone in place ahead of our new associate joining.

What You Get From Us
A supportive, established team with a strong reputation in Mount Pleasant
Modern, well-equipped operatories with current digital technology
Fee-for-service practice, not corporate — no production quotas or upsell pressure
Extended health & dental coverage, paid time off, uniform allowance
Continuing education support
A practice owner invested in your development, not just filling a seat
Compensation
$28–$35 per hour to start, depending on experience and certification, with structured growth as you develop in the role.

To Apply
Send your resume and a short note telling us about a time you caught a mistake or prevented a problem chairside (or in a previous role) that others might have missed. Please confirm in your note that you're available to work Saturdays, and open your note with the words "Healthy Smiles" so we know you read this carefully.

We read every application personally. We look forward to meeting you.
