What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a supportive dental practice that values patient care and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated and experienced dental assistant with 8 years of hands-on experience in both clinical and administrative settings. My journey in dentistry has equipped me with a diverse skill set that I am eager to leverage in a dental practice focused on exceptional patient care and customer service. I pride myself on being a goal-driven team player, passionate about patient education and ensuring a positive experience for every patient.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various dental practices, including Trinity Dental Centers, where I have taken on roles as both a dental assistant and an administrative assistant. My responsibilities have included verifying patient insurance benefits, presenting treatment plans, scheduling appointments, and managing front office tasks. I am well-versed in sterilization protocols and basic dental procedures, including endodontic and minor periodontal procedures, which allows me to provide comprehensive support to both patients and dental teams.

My bilingual skills in English and Spanish enable me to communicate effectively with a diverse patient base, ensuring that all patients receive the education and care they need. I am excited to continue my journey in dentistry, contributing to a practice that values patient care and teamwork.
