What I'm looking for

I am looking for a supportive work environment that values teamwork and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated Dental Assistant with a strong focus on patient care and a commitment to maintaining a sterile environment. My experience includes assisting in various dental procedures, managing patient records, and ensuring compliance with safety standards. I thrive in team-oriented settings, where I can leverage my interpersonal skills to foster positive relationships with patients and colleagues alike.

Throughout my internship at Carroll Family Dental, I gained hands-on experience in multiple dental specialties, enhancing my understanding of patient treatment planning and compliance. My role as a Dental Assistant at Oral Health Center further honed my skills in chairside assistance, radiology, and infection control, allowing me to contribute effectively to the dental team. I am also proficient in front desk operations, including appointment management and insurance processing, which complements my clinical expertise.

With certifications in CPR, HIPAA, and radiology, I am well-prepared to meet the challenges of a dynamic dental practice. I am eager to continue my professional development and contribute to a team that prioritizes patient care and operational excellence.
