Dental Assistant – Specialist Orthodontic Practice

Totally Ortho is under exciting recent ownership and building something special. Led by our Principal Specialist Orthodontist, King’s College London trained, and a clinical teacher at the University of Sydney. We’re investing in the latest digital orthodontic technology and in the people who’ll help us deliver outstanding care. We’re looking for a sharp, energetic dental assistant to join us chairside and grow into everything up-to-date orthodontics has to offer.

This is more than a job

You’ll be at the heart of the clinical day; four-handed beside the orthodontist, running the technology, and helping every patient feel safe and cared for. We’ll invest in you: training, mentoring and real opportunities to master intraoral scanning, digital records, aligner workflows and orthodontic procedures. If you’re quick, curious and love solving problems, you’ll thrive here.

Who you are
Rapid, sharp and tech-savvy, comfortable with digital systems and keen to master new ones.
Meticulous with detail, especially in sterilisation, records and materials.
Warm and reassuring with patients, especially children and teens.




A team player who takes initiative and takes pride in doing things properly.
Certificate III in Dental Assisting (or equivalent experience). Orthodontic experience is preferred but not essential. If you’re great and eager to learn, full training will be provided.

What you’ll do
Provide skilled four-handed chairside assistance across orthodontic treatment.
Operate and care for our digital technology; intraoral scanners, clinical photography, aligner workflows.
Run sterilisation and infection control to the highest standard.
Keep surgeries, stock and lab work seamless so every appointment runs on time.
Support and reassure patients, and be a positive force in the team.

Why you’ll love it here
Hands‑on training in cutting‑edge digital orthodontics, genuinely grow your skills.
A supportive, high‑standards culture where great work is noticed and rewarded.
A modern specialist practice with a principal who teaches and leads by example.
Competitive pay and a close, friendly team.
