Build advanced skills. Learn alongside experienced clinicians. Become an essential part of a surgical team.

Are you an overseas-trained dentist preparing for your ADC examinations, or an experienced dental assistant ready to develop your skills in surgical dentistry?

Budhwar Dental Group is offering an opportunity to receive close coaching and mentoring in All-on-4 and full-arch implant surgery , with attractive remuneration reflecting the responsibility of the role.

We’re looking for someone who wants to become a trusted surgical assistant: thoroughly prepared, attentive to detail and able to anticipate what the clinician and patient need throughout a complex procedure.

This opportunity suits two professional backgrounds:

An overseas-trained dentist beginning or progressing through the ADC process , who wants to contribute their dental knowledge in an assisting role, learn from experienced clinicians and build familiarity with Australian practice.

A senior dental assistant with an interest in surgery , who is ready to be coached into a capable All-on-4 surgical assistant and take on greater responsibility.

An opportunity to learn, contribute and progress.

You’ll benefit from:

Premium remuneration: pay that recognises the additional skills, preparation and responsibility involved in surgical assisting.

Direct coaching and mentoring: learn the preparation, sequencing and teamwork behind advanced full-arch treatment.

Exposure to complex dentistry: develop an understanding of the surgical and restorative stages, digital workflows and coordination involved in All-on-4 care.

Travel and variety:



work alongside the clinical team across practice locations and see how treatment is delivered in different settings.

Connections with leading clinicians and educators: opportunities to meet and learn from experienced people in implant dentistry.

Teaching opportunities: as your competence grows, contribute to training activities and help mentor other team members.

Career progression: develop towards greater responsibility in surgical coordination, team training and clinical support within the group.

Sponsorship opportunities: visa sponsorship may be offered to suitable candidates, subject to eligibility and applicable visa requirements.

Fewer patients, greater involvement in each case.

Surgical days involve fewer patients and longer, more complex appointments. Your contribution will require sustained concentration, careful preparation and a strong sense of responsibility.

With training and mentoring, you’ll develop the ability to:

Prepare surgical rooms, instruments, implant components, equipment and materials.

Anticipate the stages of treatment and provide efficient assistance under the treating clinician’s direction.

Maintain meticulous infection control,



instrument processing and stock organisation.

Coordinate with clinicians and support staff so each stage of the appointment runs smoothly.

Help patients feel reassured and supported throughout their care.

Take ownership of the assisting workflow, from preparation through to documentation, handover and room reset.

The goal is for you to become a dependable member of the surgical and restorative team who can confidently manage the assisting side of an All-on-4 surgical day.

We’ll invest in your development. You’ll bring commitment to learning.

You’ll need excellent attention to detail, transparent communication and a calm, organised approach. You should be comfortable receiving feedback, practising new skills and steadily taking on responsibility as your competence develops.

We value someone who thinks ahead, follows protocols, speaks up when something needs attention and works collaboratively. Willingness to travel between practices is also important.

A potential future within our group.

For overseas-trained dentists, there may be an opportunity to progress into a dentist position within one of our group practices after successfully completing the ADC process and obtaining Australian dental registration. Any future appointment would depend on your performance, mutual fit and a suitable vacancy.

For experienced dental assistants, this is an opportunity to build advanced surgical assisting skills and grow into mentoring, training and team leadership responsibilities.
