Maria Lopez
@marialopez7
Motivated Registered Dental Assistant skilled in 4-handed dentistry, radiology/X-rays, and patient-focused chairside care.
What I'm looking for
I’m a motivated and reliable Registered Dental Assistant focused on delivering excellent chairside support in a team-oriented office. I bring bilingual capability with Spanish fluency, and I’m looking for a long-term position where I can contribute every day with confidence and consistency.
Across my dental assisting roles, I’ve supported 4-handed dentistry and worked across general dentistry and pediatrics. I’ve handled radiology/X-ray operations, sterilization, and common clinical workflows such as alginate impressions, temporary crowns, and model-related tasks including stone model trimming and polishing.
I also strengthen the patient experience through clear coordination at the front desk and strong customer service. I’m comfortable working with systems like Open Dental and bringing a management mindset from my earlier Store Manager experience, including reliability under day-to-day pressure.
I hold Radiology Certification (since September 2023), and I’m also BLS certified (August 2025 to August 2027), with additional training listed as Human Trafficking (August 2023 to present). My professional ethos is simple: show up prepared, communicate clearly, and keep improving—so the team and patients can feel supported.
