Chairside assisting with the dentist
Preparing and turning over operatories
Sterilization and maintaining IPAC standards

Preparing treatment estimates and discussing financial arrangements

Comfortable with dental practice-management software and digital dentistry
Strong communication and telephone skills
Organized, dependable and able to work independently

Comfortable learning new technology and systems
Most importantly, we're looking for the right personality.

Because we are a new practice, we want someone who is proactive, flexible and genuinely interested in growing with us. You should be the type of person who notices what needs to be done and takes initiative rather than waiting to be asked.

We want to create a warm, positive and patient-focused office culture where our team enjoys coming to work and patients feel genuinely cared for.

Expected start: Mid-October 2026, with training and office setup prior to our late-October opening.
