Part Time Dental Assistant

Alpharetta Dental Care is a rapidly growing private dental practice focused on providing high-quality care in a supportive, patient-centered environment. Our mission is to create a welcoming and professional space where both patients and team members feel valued and respected.

We’re currently seeking a friendly, dependable, and detail-oriented Dental Assistant to join our team in a flexible, as-needed (PRN) role. This position is perfect for someone who enjoys a variable schedule and wants the stability of being a go-to assistant for one “home” office, rather than rotating between different practices. Hours will vary week to week based on patient flow and coverage needs, and we’ll reach out in advance whenever possible as shifts become available.

What You’ll Do:

Assist the dentist chairside during a variety of procedures
Prepare and sterilize instruments and treatment rooms according to OSHA and infection control guidelines
Take digital X-rays, intraoral scans, and assist with diagnostic imaging
Fabricate temporary crowns and take impressions
Educate patients on oral hygiene and post-operative care
Maintain accurate patient records using Open Dental
Help maintain a clean, organized, and efficient clinical environment
Be cross-trained to assist at the front desk as needed (checking patients in/out, answering phones, scheduling, etc.)

What We’re Looking For:

High school diploma or equivalent
Completion of an accredited dental assisting program
X-ray certification (Required)
Proficient in taking impressions and fabricating temporary crowns
Positive attitude, strong work ethic, and excellent communication skills
Reliable and team-oriented with great attention to detail
Flexible availability and responsiveness for last-minute or short-notice coverage when possible
Social media experience is a plus
Cross-training or willingness to assist with front office tasks is a strong plus

What We Offer:

Competitive hourly pay (based on experience and skills)
Opportunity for professional growth
Supportive team environment with open communication
Modern, well-equipped dental office
No nights or weekends – enjoy work/life balance!
Safe and respectful workplace culture
