Hillsboro Orthodontics

The World We Envision

A world where every patient feels supported, every visit runs smoothly, and every smile is built by a team that truly cares—starting with you.

Who You’ll Work With & the Mission You’ll Join

You’ll join a fast-paced, skilled, and compassionate clinical team that loves what they do. Your mission is to support exceptional orthodontic care—helping patients feel comfortable, confident, and excited about their treatment.

How We Work

We show up prepared, positive, and present.
We support one another and stay focused on the patient.
We keep learning, keep improving, and keep smiling—even when things get busy.

Keep Reading Only If You’re Saying “ABSOLUTELY YES!”

This isn’t just assisting. This is relationship-building, confidence-giving, and smile-making.

ROLE: Orthodontic Assistant / RDA

You are the heart of the clinical experience.
You’ll support the orthodontist in delivering high-quality treatment while building trust with each patient and family. Whether you’re prepping the chair, placing brackets, taking scans, or educating a teen on aligner wear—you do it with precision, warmth, and a calm presence.

Note: Some states require a Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) license for orthodontic assistants. This position can be adapted to fit your state’s licensing guidelines.

You’ll LOVE this role if you thrive on:

Assisting with wire changes, bracket placement, and appliance delivery
Taking and uploading digital X-rays, photos, and iTero scans
Explaining home care instructions and setting patient expectations
Keeping treatment areas stocked, organized, and sterilized
Supporting patients who are nervous or overwhelmed
Being the calm in the chaos—and the smile patients remember

You’re a Fit If You…

Have orthodontic or dental assisting experience (or the willingness to train and grow)
Are detail-oriented and precise with instruments, sterilization processes, and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
Communicate clearly with teammates and kindly with patients
Can stay focused in a fast-paced, high-volume schedule
Bring positive energy—even when things get tough
Are certified or registered as required in your state (or can meet requirements quickly)
