Dental Assistant – Cosmetic Dentistry

Screening Paragraph

This role is suited to someone who thrives in a busy environment, values structure, and is motivated by feedback and growth. We need a resilient person who wants to be great — someone who welcomes on-the-go training and coaching as part of their development, rather than taking it personally.


The Role

As a Dental Assistant, you'll play a central role in helping our dentists deliver outstanding patient experiences. In this role you will:

  • Provide chairside assistance across cosmetic, orthodontic, implant, and sedation procedures.
  • Manage sterilisation and infection control protocols.
  • Assist with in-house lab work, including bleaching trays, retainers, and occlusal splints.
  • Learn and contribute to advanced workflows, such as 3D model design, 3D printing, and fixed retainer bending.
  • Coordinate with external laboratories when required.
  • Ensure smooth communication between reception and clinical teams.
  • Support stock control and assist with ordering.

About You

The right candidate will be:

  • Resilient & hard-working – thrives in a fast-paced, challenging role.
  • Receptive to feedback – sees coaching as a chance to grow, not criticism.
  • Detail-driven – takes pride in infection control, preparation, and accuracy.
  • Organised & dependable – ensures the team can rely on you to stay ahead.
  • Technically curious – eager to learn 3D printing, splint design, and hands-on lab skills.
  • Team-focused – enjoys supporting colleagues and contributing to shared success.
  • Experienced – with previous dental assisting or equivalent clinical support experience in Australia.

Growth & Progression

This role is more than just chairside assisting. For the right person who proves diligent, follows processes, and demonstrates leadership potential, there is scope for progression into more senior responsibilities.


About Us

We are a cosmetic dental practice with two modern clinics in South and South-East Sydney, both with parking and excellent public transport access. We provide advanced treatments in cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, and implants, while also caring for anxious patients with our calming spa-like environment and IV sedation.
