Dental Assistant

Aloha! We are excited to find a caring person to join our dental team at ‘Aiea Pearl City Dental Care.
We are a general dentistry office on the Aiea/Pearl City border providing dental care for families for over 45 years.
We would like your help to inspire togetherness by providing a caring dental experience for patients and team members.
We believe that through togetherness we can help each other live our best lives.
We are hoping to find a clinical dental assistant who is passionate about serving others.
Job duties include chairside assisting, set up, sterilization, radiographs including bitewings, pano and CBCT, traditional and digital impressions, traditional and digital dental lab processing of night guards, retainers, whitening trays, and crowns, inventory and maintenance of dental supplies and equipment.
During work, our priorities are 1) the safety and health of oneself, teammates and patients, 2) working together as a team, and 3) creating connections with each other and our patients.
Family, progress and continual “plussing” as Disney calls it, food, and laughter are also important to us.
A usual day looks like this: 3 dentists and 5 hygienists in 10 chairs per day Monday through Saturday - a lot of moving pieces and little room for errors/delays.
Last minute emergencies and cancellations can make parts of the day very hectic.
Sometimes there may be an emergency patient squeezed in on the schedule, a patient waiting with you for the doctor, and a team member asking you a question.
While this doesn’t happen all the time, we are in need of someone who can tackle this tempo with calm and confidence.
Tuesdays and Thursdays we are open 8am-7pm, MWF 8am-5pm, Saturdays 8-1pm.
Work days and times are negotiable and flexible including full or part time.
Parking is available at $75 per month or free street parking.
401k and bonus programs are open to full or part time.
Holidays, PTO, and medical are available to full time.
Compensation is based on experience, but no experience is necessary.
We are looking for someone with an interest to learn and grow, with a passion to help and serve others, and who is able to use and their imagination to deliver care.
Someone who has difficulty with change, who does not provide help unless asked for it, who is not dedicated to team members through dependable attendance, and not in tune with empathy, will not be a good fit.
We work hard but we eat a lot and laugh a lot and we do it all as a family.
