Tired of running behind all day, feeling unsupported, or working in chaos?
If you’re an experienced Dental Assistant who takes pride in doing things right—but your current office makes that harder than it should be—we built this role for you.
The Dentist of Siouxland is looking for a skilled, motivated assistant who wants to work in an environment where systems actually work, doctors respect your role, and your day runs the way it’s supposed to.
We’re an established, privately owned practice with three locations and a long-tenured team—and we’ve worked hard to create a place where assistants can focus on what they do best.

· Assist doctors efficiently across a variety of procedures
· Keep operatories fully prepped and running smoothly
· Anticipate needs and help maintain a steady clinical flow
· Review treatment plans and support patient understanding
· Deliver a calm, confident, and professional patient experience
· Jump in where needed to support the team
What We’re Looking For
· A positive attitude
· Registered Dental Assistant with active Iowa license (required)
· 2 years of experience preferred - willing to consider a quick learner
· Strong clinical knowledge and chairside efficiency
· Organized, dependable, and calm under pressure
· A team player who communicates well and takes pride in their work
· Comfortable with digital systems and dental software
Schedule
· Monday – Thursday
· 7:15 AM – 5:30 PM (slight variation by day)
· No weekends
Location
· Primarily based in our Lakeport office
· Occasional coverage at other Siouxland locations
