What I'm looking for

I’m looking to be a team player in a fast-paced, growing dental practice—where I can coordinate care, present treatment plans clearly, and support smooth clinic operations from consultation through completion.

I’m a DANB-certified Dental Assistant and Orthodontic Treatment Coordinator with 10+ years of clinical, administrative, and patient-facing experience across Orthodontics, Endodontics, and General Dentistry. I’m known for delivering exceptional patient care, communicating treatment plans clearly, and keeping the experience smooth from initial consultation through completion.

As a Lead Treatment Coordinator / Orthodontic Assistant, I serve as the primary point of contact for new patients, presenting orthodontic treatment plans and financial options, coordinating exams and follow-ups, and building long-term relationships that support compliance and satisfaction. I manage treatment room readiness, help keep clinic flow efficient during high-volume times, and maintain strong communication with referring dentists and specialists through detailed updates.

Clinically, I assist with adjustments, banding and appliance placements, capture orthodontic diagnostic records (including intraoral photos, panoramic/cephalometric X-rays, and iTero scans), and support appliance fabrication workflows. I also bring endodontic and surgical coordination experience, including root canal support, EMR updates, insurance authorizations, and HIPAA-trained administrative support in fast-paced environments.
