Friddle Dental — Alexandria, VA

Friddle Dental is a private, single-doctor family and cosmetic dental practice in Alexandria, VA. We're not a corporate office — we're a close-knit team that genuinely enjoys coming to work, treats patients like people (not production numbers), and believes a great day at the office and great patient care go hand in hand. Good hours, a fun and supportive environment, and a patient-first philosophy are what make this practice different.

We're looking for a Hygiene Coordinator / Dental Assistant to join our team — a versatile, personable professional who can move seamlessly between the front desk and the clinical side. This is a great fit for someone who likes variety in their day and wants to be a true utility player on a small team where everyone pitches in.

• Coordinate and manage the hygiene schedule to keep the day running smoothly and efficiently
• Answer phones and handle patient scheduling with warmth and professionalism
• Verify dental insurance benefits, explain coverage to patients, and assist with claims and billing questions
• Take and process dental x-rays (digital radiography)
• Provide chairside assistance to the doctor and hygienists as needed
• Prepare and sterilize instruments and operatories between patients
• Help patients feel comfortable and informed throughout their visit
• Pitch in wherever needed to keep the office running like a team, not a assembly line

• Experience with dental insurance (verification, claims, patient communication)
• Experience taking dental x-rays
• Chairside dental assisting experience
• Comfortable answering phones and handling front-office tasks
• A team player who communicates well and works well with others
• Someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment but still takes time to connect with patients
• Positive, adaptable, and reliable — someone who wants to grow with a small practice, not get lost in a big one

• A private practice — one dentist, no corporate red tape or productivity quotas
• Good hours and reasonable work-life balance
• A fun, supportive, low-drama team environment
• A genuinely patient-centric approach to care
• The opportunity to wear multiple hats and grow your skill set
