Expanded Functions Dental Assistant (EFDA)

Dental Excellence of Green is a small, friendly two-doctor general dentistry practice in Green, Ohio, and we're looking for an EFDA to join our clinical team.

This role is for someone who takes pride in chairside skill, leads by example with calm patient care, and enjoys working closely with doctors and teammates. You'll bring your Ohio EFDA credential to restorative days, support the doctors so chairs stay organized and comfortable, and help Dental Assistant peers when asked.

If you like a steady, people-first office more than a hectic one, and you want your expanded functions put to work in a two-doctor practice, we'd love to hear from you.

- All chairside dental-assistant expectations, plus expanded functions allowed under your Ohio EFDA credential (exact function list confirmed with our doctors — we do not invent procedures in this ad)
