Join Our Passionate Team at A Lifetime of Smiles
At A Lifetime of Smiles, we do more than dentistry. We change lives. For over 26 years, our award-winning, modern practice has helped patients feel confident, cared for, and truly seen. We are known for a welcoming, upbeat environment where both patients and team members feel valued and supported.


We are currently hiring a Dental Assistant who is passionate about patient care and ready to grow with a team that believes dentistry should feel different. This is more than a clinical role. It is an opportunity to build a career in a practice that invests in your development, values teamwork, and takes pride in delivering exceptional care every day.


What You’ll Do
As a Dental Assistant, you will play a key role in both the clinical and emotional experience of our patients.
  • Help patients feel comfortable and cared for throughout their visit
  • Prepare and break down operatories with efficiency and attention to detail
  • Take high-quality digital radiographs to support accurate diagnosis
  • Maintain strict infection control and sterilization protocols
  • Assist doctors chairside during a wide range of procedures
  • Record medical and dental histories, including vital signs
  • Provide clear, compassionate post-operative instructions
  • Fabricate temporary restorations and take precise impressions
  • Support overall clinical flow and teamwork throughout the day
What We’re Looking For
  • Active Dental Assistant Certification (CDA or state equivalent) preferred
  • Knowledge of dental procedures, instruments, and terminology
  • Strong communication skills and a calm, reassuring chairside manner
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, team-focused environment
  • High level of attention to detail and commitment to patient safety
  • Positive attitude and genuine passion for helping people
Why You’ll Love Working at A Lifetime of Smiles? We believe caring for our team is just as important as caring for our patients.
  • Mentorship from four on-site doctors and an experienced clinical team
  • No weekends, because your life outside of work matters
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Generous paid time off
  • Ongoing professional development and continuing education
  • On-site espresso machine, because great coffee makes great days
  • Free parking and a supportive, team-first culture
Who We Are
A Lifetime of Smiles is a practice built on positivity, teamwork, and a commitment to improving lives through dentistry. We believe in creating an environment where people feel comfortable, encouraged, and proud of the work they do. From community involvement to team celebrations, we work hard and genuinely enjoy working together.
