Dental Assistant​/Front Office Coordinator

Pine Ridge Dental Team is growing, and we’re looking for a cross-trained pro who can do two things really well:

If you’re a Dental Assistant who’s also interested in the front-office/business side (or already great at it), this role is for you. You’ll be the calm, capable connector between our patients and our practice. The person who can reassure a nervous patient and keep the schedule from turning into a puzzle missing three pieces.

Prior dental experience is required. This is a fast-paced, people-facing role where details matter and kindness matters more.
