About this role
Smart Pediatric Dentistry, part of Specialty Dental Brands, is seeking a part-time dental assistant for their Pleasant View practice. You'll work chairside supporting pediatric procedures, managing instrument sterilization and room turnover, taking X-rays and impressions, and handling patient charting. A key part of the role involves helping children feel comfortable during visits and educating families on oral hygiene and aftercare—so patience and genuine compassion for young patients matter as much as clinical skill.
The practice emphasizes modern equipment, professional development, and a collaborative team environment. Prior dental assisting experience is preferred, ideally with pediatric patients, along with solid knowledge of dental procedures and instruments. You'll need to stay organized and communicative in a busy clinical setting while maintaining the practice's commitment to positive patient experiences and community trust.
