Role Overview- Dental Assistant

At Monokian Dentistry, we’re excited to offer a unique opportunity for a Versa Dental Assistant — a hybrid role designed for a highly motivated, solutions-focused individual who thrives in both clinical and operational environments.

“Versa” stands for versatility — and this role is exactly that. You’ll bridge the gap between patient care and behind-the-scenes systems — helping ensure smooth daily flow, equipment readiness, supply tracking, OSHA compliance, and lab case coordination. You’ll also regularly step in to support chair-side care, but this will not have your dedicated time.

Whether you're setting up rooms, tracking lab cases, monitoring supplies, or jumping in to support chairside care, you’ll play a critical role in keeping the day flowing efficiently.

It’s ideal for someone who loves being hands-on, takes pride in staying ahead of the game, and finds satisfaction in both the visible and behind-the-scenes success of a busy dental practice. Even if you haven’t held a title like this before, if you're organized, proactive, and naturally find yourself stepping in to keep things on track, we want to hear from you. We'll provide training and support — what matters most is your mindset and your ability to adapt and contribute across multiple operations.

Empowerment: How We Work and What We Expect

At Monokian Dentistry, we believe that a strong, connected team is built on empowerment and that’s especially true in the Versa Dental Assistant role.

Empowerment means more than just being given tasks; it means being trusted to own your work, speak up, and help the entire team thrive. We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just want to do the job — but wants to make it better.

Here’s what empowerment looks like in our practice:

• You understand the purpose behind your tasks — not just the how, but the why
• You’re trusted to decide the best way to get things done — and take initiative
• You speak up when something isn’t working — and offer solutions
• You improve the system, not just follow it — we welcome innovation
• You consider the whole team, not just your checklist
• You model confidence and clarity, helping others do their best work too

We believe the best team members are those who feel ownership over their role and are empowered to grow in it. If you’re someone who leads by example, takes responsibility, and lifts those around you, you’ll thrive here.
