If you are an Orthodontic Assistant or experienced Dental Assistant, this may be a great opportunity for you!
Our orthodontic team is searching for a back-office lead assistant to join us! We have a unique practice that is not high volume, uses many different treatment modalities, loves kids and teens but treats all ages, including a significant number of adults with interesting multi-specialty treatments.
If you are not an orthodontic expert, we can help with that, but chairside confidence, good eye-hand coordination/mechanical skills, and back-office management experience are important (having had braces is also a plus).
In addition to normal direct patient care, you will eventually keep track of back-office processes such as ordering/inventory, lab tracking, Invisalign case submission, operatory setup, scheduling coordination with front office, and patient records management. Some valued skills are: the ability to size, place and remove various orthodontic wires, bands, and appliances; take and pour and process impressions (yes, we still like that); confidently instruct patients on oral hygiene and use of various orthodontic devices; take panoramic and cephalometric radiographs; manage sterilization; and all the things.
Our Spanish-speaking patients (and we) will be extra extra happy if you are bilingual.
We work 3 1/2 to 4 days per week, Tuesday to Friday, with one day in Arroyo Grande each week.
Benefits include 401k with employer-matched contribution, paid vacation, sick pay/wellness bonus, orthodontic benefits, uniforms, and continuing education (only in nice places).
If you think we might be a fit, we'd love to hear from you!
