Orthodontic Dental Assistant

Sage Family Orthodontics is looking for a skilled, dependable Orthodontic Assistant to join our team. We're a modern, family-owned practice built around one doctor, exceptional patient care, and a small team that takes pride in their work. If you're the kind of person who shows up, follows through, and genuinely cares about patients — we want to meet you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Assist chairside with orthodontic procedures
• Prepare treatment rooms and sterilize instruments
• Take orthodontic records including photos, x-rays, and digital scans
• Place brackets and adjust wires under doctor supervision
• Educate patients on oral hygiene and appliance care
• Pour models and fabricate retainers

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Previous orthodontic or dental assisting experience strongly preferred — but we will train the right person
• Excellent communication and patient care skills
• Detail-oriented, reliable, and accountable
• Current x-ray certification, or willingness to obtain
• Positive attitude and a genuine team-first mentality

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

• Work directly alongside the same doctor every day — no rotating associates, no corporate management
• Cutting-edge technology including fully custom bracket systems and digital workflows
• A small, high-performing team where attitude and accountability matter as much as skill

COMPENSATION

Starting pay during the training period with no prior experience is $19–$20/hour. Once training is complete and full proficiency is demonstrated, compensation increases to reflect your experience and skill level between the ranges provided.

BENEFITS

• 401(k) retirement plan
• Paid continuing education for relicensure
• PTO

SCHEDULE

Four days per week, alternating Monday–Thursday and Friday (half day). Two days in Hilliard, two days in Pickerington.
