No prior dental experience required — we will train the right person
Help Us Create a Place Where Patients Feel Like Family
At South Burnett Dental Group, we believe that exceptional care starts the moment a patient sits in the chair — and the person who shapes that experience is you.
We are a fully private, close-knit general dental practice in Kingaroy, and we are looking for someone with a genuine passion for people to join our team as a Dental Assistant.
You do not need dental experience. What you do need is a track record of making people feel genuinely valued — whether that has been in retail, hospitality, healthcare, or any other customer-facing role. We will teach you the clinical skills. What we cannot teach is warmth, reliability, and genuine care.
About the Role
As our Dental Assistant, you will be chairside with our dentists — a trusted presence in the treatment room for every patient, every appointment. Your calm, attentive manner will directly shape how safe and supported our patients feel during their visit.
Your day-to-day will include:
Supporting our dentists during procedures with confidence and attentiveness
Preparing and resetting treatment rooms to a consistently high standard
Following strict infection control and sterilisation protocols (full training provided)
Mixing materials, passing instruments, and anticipating the needs of the clinician
Helping patients feel calm, informed, and reassured throughout their treatment
Maintaining accurate clinical records and procedure documentation
Contributing to a clean, organised, and professional clinical environment
Full training will be provided. We are looking for someone who is eager to learn and committed to doing the job properly.
What We're Looking For
A background in customer service or customer experience is our first preference.



If you know how to make someone feel genuinely at ease — and you want to bring that into a clinical setting — we want to hear from you.
You will thrive here if you:
Have prior experience in a customer-facing role (retail, hospitality, healthcare, admin, or similar) — this is our first preference
Genuinely enjoy helping people and making them feel comfortable
Pay close attention to detail and take pride in doing things properly
Stay calm and focused under pressure
Take ownership of your environment and notice what needs doing
Work well as part of a small, close-knit team
Believe that kindness and high clinical standards can coexist
Dental experience (preferred but not required):
Prior dental assisting experience
Knowledge of infection control or sterilisation protocols
Familiarity with practice management software
Attitude, reliability, and a genuine desire to care for people matter most. Skills can be taught. Commitment and warmth cannot.
This Role May Not Be Right for You If...
You prefer a purely routine or task-fixed role with limited patient interaction
You find it difficult to stay composed in a clinical or fast-paced environment
You are not comfortable working closely alongside others under pressure
You need close supervision to stay engaged and take initiative
We support each other here — but we also expect everyone to bring reliability, focus, and genuine engagement to their role every day.
The Opportunity
Casual role — minimum 3 days per week, with potential to increase
Full clinical training provided across all aspects of dental assisting
Supportive, respectful, and close-knit team environment
A meaningful role in a community-focused practice
Chance to grow your skills and your career with us
We are building something meaningful here in Kingaroy, and the right person will play an important part in that.
If you want to be part of a team that values connection, community, and high standards —
and you are ready to contribute wholeheartedly — we would love to meet you.
