Encinitas, CA

Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) — Encinitas Ranch Dentistry

We're looking for a warm, energetic, and dependable RDA to join our team in Encinitas. Our practice is built around two things: taking incredible care of our patients and being a team that genuinely enjoys working together. If both of those matter to you, keep reading.

About the practice: Encinitas Ranch Dentistry is a private, doctor-owned practice led by Dr. Ryan Kay. We focus on general dentistry, as well as cosmetic dentistry, implants, and full-mouth restorative work. One of our RDA’s is moving away, and we are looking for someone who's long term. Read through our google reviews to get a genuine sense of our office and level of care!

What you'll do:

Assist chairside for restorative, cosmetic (veneers/smile makeovers), and implant procedures

Take digital impressions, intraoral photos, and radiographs

Set up and break down operatories, sterilize instruments, help manage inventory

Coronal polishing, Sealants, making Temporaries and other RDA-permitted duties

Help patients feel calm, informed, and well cared for from check-in to check-out

Support the doctor and front office to keep the day flowing smoothly

What we're looking for: The two things that matter most to us are how you make patients feel and how you fit with the team. Skills can be taught — attention to detail, kindness, presence, and follow-through cannot. Specifically:

Active California RDA license in good standing

Current X-ray, Coronal Polish, and CPR/BLS certifications

A warm chairside presence — patients should feel calmer when you're in the room

Someone who communicates well, honestly, follows through, and lifts the team up

Pride in your work and attention to detail

We're open to all experience levels — cosmetic and implant experience is a strong plus

What we offer:

Competitive pay: $28–35/hour DOE

Full-time, 4-day work week Monday-Thursday

401k Match / PTO / Dental Benefits

A modern office that is high tech (digital scanner, 3D Printer, CBCT, etc.)

A small team that actually likes each other

A doctor who will invest in your growth and trust you to do your job

How to apply: Send your resume and a short note about why you'd be a great fit. We read every application personally and are looking forward to meeting you!

I know what it’s like to work for a bad practice. I feel like I wasted 4 years of my professional life. A classmate told me about Cloud Dentistry. In the past 8 months, I have worked in numerous practices, had better instrumentation to practice my craft, and have felt a great sense of respect. It’s amazing to feel free again while earning more money.

I really like the rating system for both the provider and the office so that it provides a brief snapshot of the level of service provided.

Cloud Dentistry has allowed me to get back into dental assisting. The website is easy to sign up for and takes the hassle out of the job hunt. I like that you can set your pay and schedule which allows more flexibility for your work/life balance. I am continuously getting booked and exploring offices to expand my skills. I recommend Cloud Dentistry to anyone in the dental field that wants more control over their career.

I wish I had the option of putting more stars, as I don't think 5 is enough! I can’t thank Cloud Dentistry enough for all the work it's provided me. I love utilizing the user-friendly platform to create my own schedule. The offices I've worked for have been great and I truly do not see myself using any other platform out there. Thank you Cloud Dentistry for helping make my professional future one I'm so proud of. I will be recommending Cloud Dentistry to all of my dental professional friends and family!
