At Nova Dental Implant Centre, we pride ourselves on delivering world-class implant and restorative dental care. Located in Applecross, Perth, our modern practice is dedicated to transforming smiles using advanced technologies and patient-centric care. We believe in seamless execution, bringing together cutting-edge fabrication workflows and clinical excellence to provide custom, high-precision dental solutions.
We are seeking a talented and versatile Dental Technician who is looking to break out of the traditional bench-only environment. This is a unique, fully integrated position designed for an adaptable professional who thrives both at the design station and chairside with patients.
The Role
As our Dental Technician, you will bridge the gap between technical fabrication and patient-side clinical care. Your time will be dynamically split between managing digital fabrication workflows and providing proactive, hands-on clinical chairside assistance.
This integrated approach ensures absolute precision for our restorations, pristine clinical workflows, and an unparalleled, seamless experience for our patients.

- Quality Assurance: Inspect, adjust, and repair existing restorations to maintain impeccable clinical standards.
- Chairside Assisting: Provide proactive, four-handed clinical support to our prosthodontists and surgeons during advanced surgical, implant, and restorative procedures.
- Infection Control: Maintain flawless infection control standards, including managing sterile set-ups, sterilizing instruments, and preparing treatment rooms.
- Patient Care: Support patients throughout their treatment journey, from initial setups to delivering clear, empathetic post-operative care instructions.

Essential Criteria:
-
Qualifications: A formal qualification in Dental Technology (or equivalent) AND a qualification or proven competency in Dental Assisting.

Competency using dental practice management software.
- A current licensing credential to take dental radiographs.
