Job description

If you've outgrown the practices you've worked for - keep reading. Dental Assistant (Experienced) - Boutique, High-End Practice in San Francisco. This isn't your average dental job. And you're not your average assistant.

Who You Are

You don't wait to be told. You walk in, read the room, and the day runs better because you're in it. You anticipate what the doctor needs before it's asked, keep patients feeling at ease while the clock stays on track, and take real ownership of your operatory. You hold a high standard - not because you're told to, but because you can't help it.

What You'll Be Doing

• Chairside assisting with precision, efficiency, and genuine patient care
• Staying 1-2 steps ahead of the doctor and the schedule - every time
• Setting up rooms and trays before they're needed
• iTero scanning
• Fabricating high-quality temporaries
• Assisting with crown, restorative, and cosmetic procedures
• Taking accurate impressions (stayplates, dentures, aligners)
• Keeping operatories immaculate, fully stocked, and always ready
• Delivering a warm, polished experience that patients remember and refer

What Sets You Apart

• 3-4+ years of dental assisting experience (fee-for-service or cosmetic practice a plus)
• CA RDA license preferred - but not required depending on experience
• Reliable, punctual, and accountable - without being managed
• Detail-oriented in a way that actually shows in the work
• Proactive communicator who keeps the team aligned
• Composed and efficient in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment

What You'll Get

• Competitive pay: $28-$38+/hr DOE
• Medical + dental benefits, retirement plan
• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• State-of-the-art equipment and streamlined digital workflows
• Real exposure to facial aesthetics - Botox, filler, and more in a cosmetic-integrated practice
• Staff discounts on aesthetic treatments
• A schedule that respects your time
• A team that's tight-knit, high-functioning, and genuinely supportive
• A workplace where your contribution is visible - and valued

The Vibe

Upscale. Organized. Zero chaos. No babysitting. Just a team that shows up sharp, supports each other, and takes pride in what they do.

We move fast, we do good work, and we don't settle - on patient care or on who's delivering it.

If you're the kind of assistant who's already running ahead of the day - not scrambling to catch up - we want to meet you.

Position

Position is open immediately.
