Option for Health Insurance
We are looking for an individual who cares about their patients and wants to help them improve/maintain their oral health. You would be seeing patients on an hourly basis with some exceptions. You would be providing regular cleanings as well as some SRP. We have multiple assistants so sterilization is not mandatory and you will always have someone to help with charting, radiographs, setting up and breaking down your room. We recently renovated our office and each room has new chairs, cabinetry, and x-ray units. We are totally digital and use XL Dent practice management software along with Dexis for radiographs. You will have your own instruments and ultrasonic tips. We are a smaller office (4 rooms) and we plan on staying that way. We like giving patients more individual attention and they love it too. We usually have 2 rooms for hygiene and 2 rooms for procedures but there are some days when 3 rooms are used for hygiene. We are small but we are a busy office with a lot of demand.

Responsibilities
Provide comprehensive dental hygiene care, including patient education, and SRP as indicated.

Perform chairside assistance during dental procedures and maintain accurate documentation.

Assess patient needs, vital signs when appropriate, and ensure patient comfort and confidentiality in accordance with HIPAA.

Manage dental equipment, x-ray procedures, and infection control protocols; ensure proper operation and sanitation.

Communicate findings to patients; maintain patient management and practice software records.
