Dental Assistant – Join a Team That Does Dentistry Differently

At Kingery Dental Health & Wellness, our mission is simple:

To change the way people feel about dentistry.

We create a patient experience that is warm, positive, and personal—helping people overcome fears, take ownership of their health, and leave our office feeling genuinely cared for.

But our mission doesn't stop with our patients.

We also want to change the way people feel about coming to work every day.

We’re looking for a Dental Assistant who loves people, takes pride in their work, and wants to be part of a team that supports one another, continues to grow, and works together to provide an exceptional patient experience.

If you’re looking for more than just another dental assisting job, we’d love to meet you.

Who You Are – You Live GRIPCO

Our culture is built around six core values:

  • Growth Oriented: You’re always looking to learn, improve your skills, and help the people around you grow.

  • Relationship Focused: You understand that great dentistry starts with trust. You build genuine connections with patients and teammates.

  • Integrity: You do the right thing, even when no one is watching, and take pride in the quality of your work.

  • Proactive: You don’t wait to be asked. You anticipate what the doctor, patient, and team need and take action.

  • Communication: You’re a fantastic communicator who listens, explains clearly, and helps patients feel comfortable, heard, and cared for.

  • Ownership: You take responsibility for your role, follow through, and understand that the success of the practice belongs to the entire team.

GRIPCO isn’t just a list of values—it’s how we work together, care for our patients, and create a place where people actually enjoy coming to work.

What You’ll Do

  • Assist our doctors during a variety of dental procedures while keeping patients comfortable and informed.

  • Prepare operatories and maintain excellent sterilization and infection-control standards.

  • Take high-quality digital X-rays with precision and attention to detail.

  • Educate patients and help them understand their care and next steps.

  • Anticipate the needs of the doctor, patient, and team.

  • Work closely with both the clinical and administrative teams to create a seamless patient experience.

  • Bring positive energy, teamwork, and a willingness to learn every day.

What We’re Looking For

Dental assisting experience is preferred, along with excellent communication skills, a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to learn and grow. Experience with digital dentistry and expanded dental assisting skills are a plus.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who understands that how a patient feels during their visit matters just as much as the dentistry we provide.

What We Offer

  • Competitive pay

  • Comprehensive benefits

  • Paid time off

  • Bonus opportunities

  • Continuing education and hands-on training

  • Opportunities to expand your skills and grow within the practice

  • Modern technology and clinical support

  • A collaborative team that wants to see you succeed

More Than a Dental Assisting Job

We believe people do their best work when they feel valued, challenged, supported, and excited about where they’re going.

At Kingery, you won’t simply help us provide great dentistry. You’ll help us build relationships, create better patient experiences, support your teammates, and build a practice we can all be proud of.

If you want to grow, contribute, and be part of something bigger than just another job, we want to meet you.
