Expanded Duties Dental Assistant

Full job description
Monument Family Dentistry | Monument, CO

Overview
Monument Family Dentistry is looking for a skilled and patient-focused EDDA/EFDA to join our team. We’re a small-town, locally rooted practice with a strong reputation for high-quality care and genuine patient relationships.

We stay busy—but we’re intentional. We’re not a “fit everyone in” office. We prioritize doing things the right way, taking care of our patients thoroughly, and creating a calm, comfortable experience from start to finish.

We’re also a pretty fun, slightly goofy group (we sometimes joke that we’re the “island of misfit toys”—and we like it that way). We work hard, support each other, and don’t take ourselves too seriously.

We’re a technology-forward practice, utilizing tools like CEREC for same-day crowns and Solea laser dentistry to provide efficient, comfortable, and modern care for our patients.

What You’ll Do:
-Assist the doctor chairside during restorative procedures, with a strong focus on crowns and same-day treatment workflows
-Support implant procedures and restorations (with opportunity to grow into surgical assisting as we expand)
-Perform expanded functions including placing and finishing restorations, sealants, and impressions
-Help maintain strong clinical flow while supporting a quality-first patient experience
-Prepare and break down treatment rooms while maintaining strict infection control standards
-Take digital X-rays and assist with advanced imaging (CBCT experience is a plus)
-Ensure all instruments and materials are ready to keep appointments efficient and on time
-Accurately chart and update patient records in Open Dental
-Support a positive patient experience—helping patients feel comfortable, informed, and cared for
-Collaborate with hygienists and front office team to keep the day running smoothly

What We’re Looking For:
-Experience in general dentistry (crown experience strongly preferred)
-Strong understanding of four-handed dentistry and efficient clinical workflows
-Familiarity with digital imaging and dental software (Open Dental is a plus)
-Experience with CEREC & Solea laser dentistry is a plus
-Interest or experience in implant dentistry (restorative or surgical)
-Detail-oriented with strong time management skills
-A team player who communicates well and contributes to a positive, supportive culture
-Someone who takes pride in quality work—but can also laugh, roll with the day, and enjoy being
part of a close-knit team

Why Join Monument Family Dentistry?
-A modern, boutique-style practice with a small-town feel
-Strong focus on quality over volume—we take the time to do things right
-Consistent patient flow without the pressure of overbooking
-A supportive, team-oriented environment where your role truly matters
-A team that works hard, laughs a lot, and genuinely enjoys being around each other
-Opportunity to grow your skills in implants, same-day crowns, and laser dentistry
