What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-focused dental role where I can apply clinical skills, support efficient operations, mentor staff, and continue developing competencies in restorative and orthodontic procedures.

I am an experienced dental assistant with progressive clinical experience across pediatric and general dentistry settings, supporting procedures from extractions and crown preps to orthodontic banding and Invisalign workflows.

I reliably handle radiographs, sterilization, room setup and breakdown, patient check-in/out, charting, ordering, and staff training while maintaining HIPAA and infection-control standards.

My certifications include dental radiography (X-ray), CPR, and first aid, and I bring a patient-focused, organized approach that helps offices run efficiently and deliver high-quality care.
