Job Description

Join Our Paw-some Team!

Are you a dental unicorn with HYGIENE hands and ASSISTANT instincts? 

You love hygiene—but maybe not just hygiene? If you’re skilled with a scaler but also miss the variety and creativity that dental assisting brought into your day, then keep reading! You can do BOTH with our team, which is all about great care, laughter, and—did we mention—our office dog, Benny? He’s basically the office celebrity, and he’s waiting for you to pet him!

Here’s what you’ll love about us:

• 16 hours of paid CE time to keep your skills sharp
• 401(k) with 3% employer contributions (we’re planning for your future while you plan your next vacation)
• Monthly bonuses and annual CE trips (yes, we really send you on trips, we’re that cool)
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)—because life’s unpredictable, but we’ve got your back
• 48 hours of PTO + $250 yearly expense account (scrubs, CE, whatever you need)
• In-house dental plan (your smile—and your family’s—are covered)
• Medical, vision, life, & disability insurance—we’ve got you covered from head to toe
• Tax-advantaged accounts, accident & critical illness insurance
• Telemedicine, Rx discounts, pet insurance & more (because we love all our patients— even the furry ones!)

Your Schedule, Your Sunshine:

• Full-time, 32 hours/week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday
• Wednesdays off —yes, really—a mid-week breather!
• Hours:
• 7 AM – 3 PM on Monday, Thursday, and Friday (so you can catch some daylight and still have time to do something fun after work!)
• 8 AM – 5 PM on Tuesday (enjoy that extra hour of sleep!)

Who we are: We’re Prairie Village Dentists, a family-owned practice with 50+ years of experience, a solid reputation, and a knack for keeping things light. We believe in taking care of our team, so they can take care of our patients. If you're looking for a place to grow, laugh, and make a difference, look no further!

What we’re looking for:

• A curious soul who loves to learn and is always looking for their next “aha!” moment (aka- a lifelong learner!)
• A teammate through and through—someone who lifts others up and knows how to lean on their crew when needed
• Someone who gets a little spark in their eye when they hear the word “innovation”
• Reliable, ready to roll up their sleeves, and maybe sneak in a quick belly rub for Benny between patients!
• …and if you’ve got an eye for a cute candid or a witty caption, maybe help us shine a little brighter on Instagram and Facebook too?

Your Day-to-Day (Never Exactly the Same):

• Partner with the dentist to co-diagnose and keep our patients smiling
• Do your hygiene thing—cleanings, SRPs, debridements, you know the drill (pun intended)
• Give local anesthetic and jump in to assist with restorative care
• Help keep our ops clean and cozy, and our instruments squeaky and sterile
• Make beautiful temps, scan with our Trios Scanner, and design crowns in-house (yes, it’s as cool as it sounds!)
• Snap some awesome digital X-rays and some seriously sweet intraoral photos
• Keep charts accurate and help the day run like a dream
• Make patients feel seen, safe, and genuinely cared for (humor always welcome!)
• Start the day with a morning huddle—and yes, it’s usually a good time! 
• Oh! And say hi to Benny every morning (he says it’s mandatory!)

Got dreams that go beyond hygiene?  Maybe you’re into marketing, mentoring, sleep dentistry, or oral myo-functional therapy. Whatever you’re passionate about, we want to hear it. Let’s create a role that brings out the best in you .

We support each other’s aspirations, and create schedules that protect both your body, your joy, and your FAMILY. You won't be asked to fit into a rigid mold—we build roles around our people, not the other way around.

So, if you're ready for a role that doesn’t feel like just another job—where you matter, your skills grow, you're part of a supportive (and seriously fun!) team, and you get to make people smile while using your best dog voice daily—we can’t wait to meet you! Come for the variety… Stay for the vibes (and the Benny belly rubs)!
