The Opportunity
As our Dental Assistant, you will be the dentist’s trusted right hand and a reassuring guide for every patient. You will anticipate clinical needs, support safe and efficient treatment, and help each patient feel heard, informed, and genuinely cared for from arrival through follow-up.
What You’ll Do:
- Provide four-handed chairside assistance for preventive, restorative, endodontic, surgical, implant, and cosmetic procedures.
- Prepare treatment rooms, instruments, materials, and patients while following OSHA and CDC infection-control standards.
- Capture digital radiographs, intraoral photos, 3D scans, and impressions.
- Communicate with warmth and empathy, monitor comfort, explain care clearly, and provide post-treatment guidance.
- Document accurately, coordinate lab cases and referrals, and provide seamless handoffs across the team.
- Contribute ideas, embrace new technology, and help create an efficient, supportive, and fun workplace.
What You Bring:
- Dental assisting education or equivalent hands-on training, plus required state credentials and current CPR/BLS certification.
- Knowledge of dental instruments, materials, digital radiography, and four-handed dentistry.
- A dependable, adaptable, team-first approach with excellent communication and genuine care for patients.
- Experience with practice-management software, CBCT, digital scanning, implants, orthodontics, or Spanish is a plus.
Why Le Pearl Dental?:
- Join our locally owned, independent practice—not a corporate chain—and a team that cares for one another.
- Competitive hourly pay based on experience and certifications.
- Enjoy flexible scheduling beyond the traditional 9-to-5, with morning or evening shifts available.
- Complimentary and discounted dental care for employees and immediate family.
- Advanced clinical technology, continuing education support, and specialty cross-training opportunities.
- A supportive, growth-minded culture rooted in shared leadership, kindness, family, and fun.
