Smile Envy | Manasquan, NJ
Smile Envy is a well-established, privately owned dental practice looking for an experienced, dependable Dental Front Office Coordinator to join our team.

We are looking for someone who is confident, organized, personable, and able to take ownership of the front office. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working with patients, understands dental office operations, and can work independently in a professional, friendly environment.

What you’ll be responsible for:
Greeting and communicating with patients in a warm, professional manner
Answering phones and managing patient inquiries

Collecting copays, deductibles, and patient balances
Presenting treatment plans and financial arrangements
Reviewing patient insurance breakdowns and identifying obvious discrepancies
Following up on unscheduled treatment
Following up on outstanding patient balances
Managing cancellations and helping keep the schedule productive
Preparing patient information and the schedule for upcoming clinical days
Communicating issues to the doctors and following through until they are resolved
Maintaining accurate and organized patient records
Helping ensure the front office runs smoothly and efficiently
Our systems and support:
You will not be expected to figure everything out on your own. Our practice has established systems, outside support for certain insurance and administrative functions, and technology/AI tools that help streamline the front-office workload.

What we need from you is excellent execution, organization, follow-through, and patient communication.

The ideal candidate:
Has previous dental front-office experience and strong Dentrix skills
Understands basic dental terminology and insurance concepts
Is comfortable discussing treatment and financial arrangements with patients
Is highly organized and detail-oriented
Can prioritize and manage multiple responsibilities
Is comfortable working independently

Wants to be part of a stable, privately owned practice
What we offer:
$25-$30/hour, depending on experience
Stable, established private practice
Supportive professional environment
Modern systems and technology
Clear responsibilities and expectations
Opportunity for the right person to become an important part of our team
This position is NOT simply a “sit at the front desk and answer the phone” position. We are looking for someone who takes ownership of the patient experience and the day-to-day front-office workflow.

If you are an experienced dental front-office professional who is organized, proactive, and takes pride in doing things correctly, we would love to hear from you.

Please submit your resume along with a brief description of your dental front-office experience and the responsibilities you have handled independently.
