About Us: Desert Foothills Dental is an established 50+ year old private practice in the Ahwatukee Foothills driven by a clear Core Purpose: To build lifelong relationships based on trust by treating our patients, not just their teeth. We believe in a drama-free, highly supportive workplace where people genuinely enjoy coming to work. We hire for mindset first. Our culture is defined by three Core Values:
Humble: We put ego aside, own our mistakes, and are always ready to learn.
Hungry: We are self-starters who show up prepared and drive results.
Heart: We bring a positive attitude, empathy, and steadiness. Team stability is our heartbeat—we protect each other by showing up consistently.
The Objective: We are seeking a highly skilled and exceptionally reliable Dental Assistant. You can be a purely clinical DA, and be open to helping out at the front desk as needed. Because our doctors and patients rely heavily on this role, exceptional attendance and a happy, team-first attitude are absolute requirements. If you have a history of chronic absenteeism or calling out at the last minute, this will not be a good fit.

Clinical Excellence: Perform seamless chairside assisting, rapid room turnover, and strict sterilization. Take high-quality radiographs. Propose, educate, and perform clinical sealants. Assist with straightforward extractions and restorative procedures. Assist the front-office team with scheduling, treatment presentations, and ensuring every patient checks out with their next appointment booked.
Requirements:
Rock-Solid Reliability: You take pride in your punctuality and attendance. Your team never has to guess if you are going to show up.
Active Arizona Dental X-Ray Certification (Required).
