POSITION SUMMARY

Are you a warm, detail-obsessed professional who holds yourself to an exceptionally high standard and genuinely loves working with people? Kuhni Orthodontic Studio is hiring an Orthodontic Clinical Assistant who brings technical skill, positive energy, and a patient-first mindset to everything they do. In this role, you'll work chairside with our doctor, prepare and maintain clinical instruments and materials, uphold strict infection control standards, and ensure every patient feels cared for, informed, and confident throughout their treatment. We're looking for a fast learner who thrives under pressure, embraces change, manages multiple priorities with ease, and shows up every day as a true ambassador of our culture — bringing warmth, precision, and the kind of genuine enthusiasm that patients remember long after they leave our chair. If you're a team player who can also work independently, communicate professionally, and make excellence look effortless — we want to hear from you.

Restock chairside units and maintain organized, clean workstations throughout the day.
Submit EasyRx or equivalent lab slips and assist with inventory restocking.

2. Infection Control & Safety

Follow all infection control and sterilization protocols in compliance with OSHA, CDC, and state/local standards.
Clean, disinfect, sterilize, and re-circulate instruments; maintain sterilization logs.
Disinfect chairs, treatment areas, and work surfaces between every patient.
Maintain current OSHA and HIPAA certifications annually.
Ensure proper handling and disposal of hazardous materials per established protocols.

3. Patient Care & Education

Deliver clear, encouraging, and thorough home-care, appliance, and elastic instructions to every patient.
Motivate and educate patients to follow the doctor's recommendations and maintain good oral hygiene.
Communicate treatment progress updates to parents and patients with professionalism and empathy.
Help manage patient expectations and ensure a positive, confidence-building treatment experience.
Educate patients and families on the benefits of SmileSecure and actively present it as a recommended option.
Participate in discussions with patients regarding compliments and concerns; model proper clinical verbal skills.

Fabricate clear retainers, bleaching trays, and other in-house lab appliances as directed.
Submit, track, and manage in-house and external lab cases.

Work cohesively with fellow team members to foster an environment of trust, mutual respect, and cooperation.
