Coastal Dental Care has looked after Kingscliff families since 1969, from our practice at the Kingscliff Professional Centre on Pearl Street. We're part of a dentist-owned network of practices across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW, so there's always a wider team to lean on, but Kingscliff still feels like your local: nine modern surgeries, undercover parking, and a team that's looked after Kingscliff for decades.
This is a casual Dental Assistant role at our Kingscliff practice, with up to 30+ hours most weeks for the right person. You'll work chairside with Dr Arthur Lima, who has a genuine interest in implantology and cosmetic dentistry. We're looking for an assistant who's comfortable in the sterilisation room and confident supporting implant and oral surgery procedures: someone who knows what's needed and has a desire for patients to receive the best care.
- Assist chairside through implant placements, oral surgery and general restorative procedures
- Run the sterilisation room: clean, package, sterilise, store, and keep accurate digital records
- Set up and turn over treatment rooms, instruments and materials to protocol
- Prepare patients for treatment and help them feel comfortable throughout
- Support with post-operative instructions and patient care after surgical procedures
- Help out at reception when needed, if that's an area you've worked in before
- Experience in sterilisation and infection control protocols
- Experience assisting with implant and/or oral surgery procedures
- Certificate III or IV in Dental Assisting, or working towards one
- Clear, calm communication with patients and the team
- Professional presentation and up-to-date immunisations
- Experience in dental reception or front-desk duties
- Working knowledge of Dental4Windows (D4W)
- Comfortable working alongside a dentist with a busy implant and cosmetic caseload
- Casual role with real room to build to 30+ hours most weeks
- Hands-on exposure to implant and oral surgery cases, working directly with Dr Arthur Lima
- Above-award pay that scales with your qualifications and experience
- Staff Development Days, study clubs, and support to pursue further tertiary qualifications
- Room to pick up extra casual shifts across our wider Gold Coast and Northern NSW network
- Dental discounts for you and your family, plus Employment Hero perks and confidential EAP support
