Job description

Dental Assistant — Concierge Dental Group

Clarence · North Buffalo · Orchard Park · West Seneca · Williamsville

The best dental assistants are the quiet engine of a great office — anticipating the doctor’s next move, keeping patients calm, making the whole day flow. If that’s you, keep reading.

Who we are

Concierge Dental Group is dentist-founded and owner-operated — five offices right here in Western New York. Proudly local, not a corporate chain. We run a modern, fully digital practice — AI-assisted diagnostics, 3D imaging, intraoral cameras, the good tech — with a team that actually has a personality. High standards, zero stuffiness.

Tell us which office is closest to home — most of our team works near where they live, with the option to cross-train and cover other locations if you want the variety.

What the role actually looks like

• Chairside assisting across general and surgical procedures — you’re the doctor’s right hand
• Operatory setup, sterilization, and keeping the clinical day moving
• Digital x-rays and intraoral imaging (we’ll support your certification if you’re working toward it)
• Making patients feel safe, informed, and genuinely cared for
• Working shoulder-to-shoulder with hygienists, doctors, and the front office as one team

Where it can go

Strong assistants here grow into Lead Dental Assistant, Treatment Coordinator, or clinical-trainer roles. We promote from within — your next step is real.

What we’re looking for

• Warm, steady, and quick on your feet
• Chairside experience helpful; NYS radiology / X-ray certification a plus (we’ll help you get there)
• Comfortable with digital workflows and learning new tech fast
• A team player who takes pride in a clean, calm, well-run operatory
• Dental experience preferred — but the right attitude can be trained

Compensation & benefits

• $20–$27/hour, based on experience and certifications
• Health, dental, vision & 401(k)
• Paid time off — and a team and schedule that actually let you use it
• Continuing-education and certification support

The honest part

We’re a growing five-location group intentionally building one cohesive team across all of our offices. This past year we brought in dedicated executive leadership focused on team development, communication, and how our offices work together. We’re not done. We’re still building. If you’d rather help build something than arrive somewhere already finished — we’d like to meet you.
