Our

is seeking an exceptional

Dental Assistant

for an opportunity to join our dedicated team.

Who We Are

We are a team of three dentists, one part-time assistant and one part-time receptionist that are dedicated to providing the best quality care to our patients. We constantly push ourselves to learn more and become better providers. Our focus is on digital, cosmetic, and special care dentistry - however, we see patients of all ages and do most procedures in our office including wisdom teeth extractions, molar root canals, and implants. Our office is drama-free and so are our patients, so any addition to the team has to be the right fit personality-wise. Since we are a start-up office, it is not the fastest-paced office, but we are growing busier and you would normally be responsible for two columns of patients. Technology/software in our office include: OpenDental Weave EzDent-i 3Shape (Trios 5) CBCT GentleWave
