Job Description

About the Role

We're hiring four dental assistants across three of our offices: two in Torrance, one in San Pedro and one in Lawndale. This one posting covers both our Dental Assistant and CEREC Assistant roles, so whether you're an experienced chairside assistant or already comfortable designing and milling same-day crowns, we'd like to hear from you. You'll work alongside general dentists who handle a broad scope in-house, from implant restoration and full-arch cases to root canals, so no two days look the same. Our offices run CEREC same-day restorations, Primescan digital scanners, CBCT 3D imaging and in-office 3D printing, and we'll train the right person on all of it. Full-time, Monday through Friday, with Fridays ending midday. When you apply, let us know which office(s) you're interested in and whether you have CEREC experience.

About the Practice

Digital Smiles Advanced Dentistry is a doctor-led group of six general dental offices across the South Bay, Long Beach and Orange County: Lawndale, Torrance, Rancho Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Long Beach and Yorba Linda. Founded in 1996 by Dr. Steve Sutherland, the group has grown from a single practice into a multi-location organization that is actively expanding. Our offices are built around comprehensive, same-team care. Our general dentists are trained to handle a broad scope (implant restoration, full-arch cases, endodontics, extractions), supported by an in-house oral surgeon and orthodontist who rotate between locations, so patients rarely need to go elsewhere. We invest heavily in technology: CEREC same-day restorations, Primescan digital impressions, CBCT 3D imaging, and SprintRay in-office 3D printing. For our team, that means meaningful clinical growth, mentorship from an experienced Clinical Director, a central support team (marketing, phones and billing) so offices can focus on patients, and a schedule that ends midday on Fridays. We're looking for people who want to grow with a group on the move.

What You'll Do

  • Assist the dentist chairside across general, restorative, implant and full-arch procedures
  • Take Primescan digital impressions, x-rays and CBCT scans
  • CEREC Assistant: design, mill and finish same-day crowns and restorations
  • Prepare and turn over operatories, and handle sterilization and infection control
  • Walk patients through their treatment and keep them comfortable throughout the visit

What You'll Bring

Required

  • Chairside dental assisting experience
  • California Radiation Safety and 8-hour Infection Control certificates
  • Current CPR / BLS certification

Preferred

  • RDA license (preferred, not required)
  • CEREC design and milling experience (for the CEREC Assistant role; we'll train)
  • Experience with digital scanners (Primescan / intraoral) and implant cases
