Dental Receptionist / Dental Assistant (Casual)

Kedron Dental Centre is looking for an enthusiastic, caring and motivated team member to join our growing practice.

This role is primarily focused on reception, however applicants with dental assisting experience who are happy to assist clinically when required will be highly regarded. Whether your background is predominantly reception, chairside assisting, or a combination of both, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a casual position offering approximately 25–30 hours per week, with the opportunity for additional hours as the practice continues to grow.

Kedron Dental Centre is a modern family dental practice located in Brisbane's north.

We believe patients deserve outstanding dental care in a welcoming, relaxed environment. We're continually investing in our practice—from the latest technology to our team—so we can provide the best possible experience for both our patients and our staff.

Our practice offers a wide range of treatments, including general dentistry, CEREC same-day crowns, dental implants and digital dentistry. More importantly, we're proud of the friendly, supportive culture we've built and are looking for someone who'll enjoy being part of it.

As one of the first people our patients see and speak to, you'll play an important role in creating a positive experience from the moment they contact our practice until they leave.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Greeting patients with warmth, professionalism and empathy

• Managing appointments and maintaining an efficient appointment book

• Answering phones and responding to patient enquiries

• Processing payments and health fund claims

• Managing recalls and helping patients book treatment appointments

• Supporting the dentists and wider team throughout the day

• Chairside dental assisting when required

• Assisting with sterilisation and infection control during quieter periods

• General reception and administrative duties

Every day is a little different, so we're looking for someone who enjoys variety, likes staying busy and is always happy to lend a hand.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has previous experience working in a dental practice, either in reception, dental assisting or a similar role

• Previous dental reception experience is preferred, but not essential

• Dental assisting experience is highly regarded

• Experience with Dental4Windows is preferred, but not essential

• Has excellent communication and customer service skills

• Is organised, reliable and enjoys keeping things running smoothly

• Has strong attention to detail

• Can remain calm and positive in a busy environment

• Enjoys working as part of a supportive team

• Takes pride in providing exceptional patient care

• Approximately 25–30 casual hours per week

• Competitive hourly rate based on experience

• A supportive, welcoming and genuinely friendly team environment

• A modern, well-equipped practice with the latest technology

• Ongoing training and opportunities to develop your skills

• Exposure to digital dentistry, CEREC and implant workflows

• The opportunity to work across both reception and clinical duties

• A workplace where your contribution is genuinely valued

We're much more interested in finding the right person than someone who ticks every box.

If you're friendly, dependable, enjoy working with people and are eager to learn, we'd encourage you to apply—even if you don't meet every criterion listed above.

We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys helping others, works well as part of a team and wants to contribute to a positive workplace where everyone supports one another.

If you're looking for a rewarding role in a modern practice where you'll be supported, appreciated and encouraged to grow, we'd love to hear from you.

Please submit your resume together with a brief cover letter telling us a little about yourself and why you'd be a great fit for Kedron Dental Centre.

We look forward to welcoming the newest member of our team.
