About Us
East Louisville Pediatric Dentistry is a new, family-owned pediatric dental practice founded by husband-and-wife pediatric dentists, Drs. Clay and Hannah Jackson.
Our office is centered around one simple goal: creating a place where children feel comfortable, parents feel heard, and curating a team of people who desire to build something special.
As we prepare to open our doors, we’re looking for an Expanded Duties Dental Assistant (EDDA) who is kind, hardworking, dependable, and excited about helping us build an exceptional pediatric dental practice from the ground up.
This isn’t just an opportunity to join a dental office—you’ll have the chance to help shape our systems, culture, and patient experience from day one.
The Position
We are looking for an experienced and motivated EDDA who loves working with children and thrives in a team-oriented environment.
Our ideal candidate is someone who takes initiative, stays organized, communicates well, and is willing to jump in wherever needed. Because you’ll be one of our first team members, we’re especially interested in someone who is comfortable taking the lead and helping establish efficient clinical systems and workflows.
There will also be an opportunity to grow into a clinical lead/lead dental assistant role as the practice grows.
Responsibilities
Assist our pediatric dentists with restorative and preventive procedures
Perform expanded dental assisting duties within the scope permitted by Kentucky law
Help children feel safe, comfortable, and confident during their dental visits
Prepare and turn over treatment rooms efficiently
Maintain sterilization and infection-control standards
Take dental radiographs
Maintain organized clinical supplies and inventory
Help develop and improve clinical systems as our new practice grows
Communicate clearly and compassionately with parents and caregivers
Work closely with the doctors and other team members to create an exceptional patient experience
Be willing to pitch in wherever needed during the startup and growth of the practice
Who We're Looking For
We would love to meet someone who is:
Kind, positive, and patient with children
Hardworking and dependable
A genuine team player
Organized and detail-oriented
Comfortable taking initiative without needing constant direction
Excited about helping organize and establish a brand-new practice
Professional while still knowing how to have fun with kids
Interested in growing into a leadership role
Committed to providing excellent patient and parent experiences
Previous pediatric dental experience is strongly preferred. Expanded Duties Dental Assistant credentials/certification required as applicable, such as coronal polishing certificate.
What We Offer
24–32 hour workweek
Competitive pay based on experience
Paid time off
Consistent daytime schedule
A brand-new, thoughtfully designed pediatric dental office
Opportunity to help build our clinical systems and culture from the beginning
Opportunity for professional growth and leadership
Supportive, family-owned practice environment
The chance to work directly with two pediatric dentist owners who value their team and want to create a workplace where people enjoy coming to work
Why Join Us?
Joining a startup practice is different from stepping into an established office. You’ll have a voice in how things are done and the opportunity to help us create the kind of dental practice we all want to work in.
We’re looking for someone who wants more than just another dental assisting job. We want a teammate who takes pride in their work, cares about the families we serve, and is excited to grow alongside East Louisville Pediatric Dentistry.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you!
Please apply through Indeed with your resume and a brief introduction telling us a little about yourself and why you think you’d be a great fit for our team.
