Job Description
Parents say it best: their kids actually want to come back. That's not an accident. It comes from a team that genuinely likes working together and treats every child like they matter. We're looking for a pediatric dental assistant who wants to be part of that.
Honeycomb Pediatric Dentistry is a fast-growing kids' dental practice in Ozark with a 5.0 rating across 342 Google reviews. We're not a corporate office — we're a small team that takes pride in making dental visits calm, positive, and something families look forward to. We're hiring a full-time pediatric dental assistant to join us.
What the job actually looks like
You're chairside with the doctor and right next to the kiddo. That matters. A lot of children are nervous, and your calm, upbeat presence makes the whole visit. Day to day:
Setting up operatories, assisting the doctor through procedures, and keeping the room running smoothly so kids never feel rushed.
Taking radiographs, helping with impressions, and charting accurately.
Sterilization and instrument processing. We take infection control seriously and so should you.
Talking kids and parents through what's happening next — people relax when they know what to expect.
Helping create a fun, positive experience so a child's first memories of the dentist are good ones.
Working alongside our front desk and clinical team to keep the day flowing.
Why people like working here
Four-day work week. 8 AM to 4:30 PM, four days a week, with no late nights.
The team actually likes each other. Families notice it — 342 reviews and a perfect 5.0 don't happen by accident.
We invest in our people. Competitive pay ($20–$25/hr), dental benefits, a retirement plan, paid time off, plus training and mentorship in pediatric dentistry and real opportunities to grow.
It's genuinely a great place to work. If you love kids, this is the setting for you.
Who we're looking for
We don't need a unicorn. We need someone who's genuinely warm, capable chairside, and great with kids. Here's what matters to us:
You're a kid person. You can make a nervous five-year-old laugh and a worried parent feel reassured.
You stay calm and organized when the schedule gets tight, the doctor needs something fast, and a patient needs comforting — all at once.
You're a Certified Dental Assistant (CDA) with current CPR and X-ray certification — all three required. Pediatric experience is a plus but not required.
You'd love to put down roots. We're a team that grows together, and we'd be thrilled to have you build your career with us.
How to apply
Send your resume to dustin@dovedentalgroup.com or apply through Indeed. Include a few sentences about why this sounds like a fit — no formal cover letter needed, just tell us a little about yourself. If you take pride in making kids feel safe and want to be part of a team that actually cares, we'd love to hear from you.
