We are seeking a highly adaptable, proactive, and exceptionally reliable Dental Assistant (DA or RDA) to join our New York team. This is not your typical stationary office role. While you will have an in-person home base, this is a unique mobile hybrid role where the location of your day changes with the schedule.

You will work directly alongside the dentist to deliver high-quality general and specialized care directly to patients wherever they are. This includes conducting house calls, visiting senior living properties to care for wheelchair-bound or medically compromised patients, and participating in our "Dentist on Demand" corporate wellness program (transforming corporate conference rooms into temporary preventative care clinics).

Key Responsibilities

Mobile & House Call Support: Travel daily with the Dentist to private homes, senior living facilities, and corporate environments to provide bedside and on-site clinical care.
Clinical Assisting: Provide chairside (and bedside) assistance for general dentistry and heavy "crown & bridge" procedures, including crown preps.
Imaging & Diagnostics: Take high-quality X-rays and perform intra-oral imaging/scanning (experience with Dandy is a plus).
Sterilization & Infection Control: Maintain rigid infection control, instrument sterilization, and equipment maintenance protocols across shifting clinical environments.
Patient Care: Deliver compassionate, patient-centric care to a highly diverse population, including elderly, differently-abled, special needs, and medically complex patients.
Leadership & Operations: Play an active role in the New York team’s local training and hiring processes as the market expands. Maintain seamless communication via Slack and Monday.com.

Position Requirements & Physical Demands

Absolute Reliability: Because mobile operations rely heavily on seamless scheduling and logistics, punctuality, transparency, and rock-solid dependability are strictly required.
Physical Stamina: Must be able to handle the physical demands of a mobile practice, including the ability to lift and move 25–50 pounds of portable dental equipment daily.
Adaptability: Comfort working in a fast-paced environment with lots of moving parts and shifting physical setups.

Qualifications

Must-Haves:

Certification or diploma in Dental Assisting (DA or RDA).
Active X-ray License and proven mastery of infection control/sterilization protocols.
2+ years of dental assisting experience preferred (ideally with heavy exposure to crown/bridge prep).
Proficiency in dental terminology and comprehensive knowledge of general dentistry practices.
Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with a patient, empathetic demeanor.

Plusses (Nice-to-Haves):

Direct experience assisting with Oral Surgery or Endodontics specialties.
Proficiency with dental software (Dentrix and Dexis).
Familiarity with digital intra-oral scanning (Dandy).
Experience utilizing modern team collaboration tools (Slack, Monday.com).
