We're looking for a dental assistant who is passionate about dentistry, loves connecting with patients, and wants to grow alongside a practice that values quality over quantity.

We are a modern, fee-for-service practice focused on comprehensive, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry. We believe exceptional patient care begins with exceptional people, and we've built a team that genuinely enjoys working together. If you're looking for a supportive environment where you'll be encouraged to learn, expand your skills, and make a real impact on patients' lives, we'd love to meet you.

  • Strong focus on cosmetic and comprehensive dentistry

  • Commitment to continuing education and professional growth

  • Competitive pay based on experience

  • Paid holidays and PTO

  • Retirement and healthcare benefits available

  • Monday–Thursday schedule with long weekends

  • $28-$38/hour based on experience

You'll have opportunities to assist with smile makeovers, Botox, full-mouth rehabilitation, implant procedures, digital dentistry, and other advanced treatments while continuing to develop your clinical skills.

What You'll Do

  • Assist chairside during restorative, cosmetic, surgical, and hygiene procedures

  • Take digital radiographs and intraoral scans

  • Prepare treatment rooms and maintain sterilization protocols

  • Has excellent communication skills

  • Enjoys building relationships with patients

  • Takes initiative and has a strong work ethic

  • Loves learning and growing professionally

  • Wants to be part of a long-term team

Dental assisting experience is preferred, but we are willing to invest in the right person who demonstrates enthusiasm, professionalism, and a desire to grow.

If you're looking for a practice where you'll be appreciated, challenged, and supported—not just another number—we'd love to hear from you.

Please submit your resume and a brief note telling us why you'd be a great fit for our team.

We believe skills can be taught, but kindness, integrity, and a positive attitude are what truly make someone exceptional. If that sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.
