Job Description

Looking to get into an AMAZING office, in an exciting position with tremendous growth potential? Want to find a workplace to call home and launch a meaningful career?  Monokian Dentistry is just that place!

We are currently hiring for a  Dental Assistant through our paid  Dental Assistant in Training Program , with a track specifically leading to a  Versa Dental Assistant role. This is a rare opportunity to get trained in a high-functioning, family-run practice without any prior dental experience required. You’ll gain experience in both chairside assisting and operational systems to build a well-rounded clinical foundation and prepare for long-term success.

Why Join Monokian Dentistry?

Since opening our doors in 1978, Monokian Dentistry has been recognized for exceptional care, a patient-first approach, and a dynamic team culture. With two locations, 18 operatories, and a growing team of general dentists and specialists, we offer the best of both worlds: the warmth of a small practice and the support of a well-established organization.

What makes us different:

  • Energetic, Positive Work Environment: Our office buzzes with energy and teamwork.
  • Growth Opportunities: We promote from within and offer long-term career paths.
  • Paid Training: Learn on the job and get paid to build your career.
  • Inclusive Culture: Every team member is heard, valued, and empowered.
  • Fun & Bonding: We host team events, celebrate wins, and support each other.

About the Versa Dental Assistant Role

This training prepares you to become a  Versa Dental Assistant — a hybrid role where you’ll learn both chairside assisting and critical practice operations. You’ll be responsible for keeping the clinical environment running smoothly, supporting doctors and patients, and helping manage the flow of the day. While some of your time will be spent assisting chairside, a significant part of your role will focus on systems such as equipment maintenance, OSHA compliance, lab case tracking, supply management, and sterilization.

We want people who don’t just complete tasks but take ownership. This role is perfect for someone with natural leadership qualities who finds satisfaction in making systems better and helping the team thrive.

What You Will Learn

  • Clinical chairside support (instrument prep, x-rays, suctioning, assisting during procedures)
  • Equipment management, sterilization protocols, OSHA compliance
  • Tracking lab cases and managing dental supply inventory
  • Communication and coordination within a large dental team
  • How to empower others and lead through action

What Empowerment Looks Like at Monokian

Empowerment is more than just a buzzword — it's the way we work. It means:

  • You understand the  why behind your work
  • You’re trusted to figure out the  how
  • You speak up when things aren’t working
  • You help improve systems, not just follow them
  • You think about the team, not just your task list
  • You take initiative and bring others with you

We train you to be confident, resourceful, and capable — and to help others become the same.

What You Bring to the Table

  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • No dental experience needed — just drive and a positive attitude
  • Ability to make a 2-year commitment to the training and licensing process
  • Outgoing and engaging personality
  • Quick thinking and calm under pressure in a fast-paced environment
  • Passion for patient care and team success
  • Willingness to study, self-learn, and complete coursework to obtain an NJ x-ray license*

Training & Licensing Pathway

We’ll train you to qualify for three dental licenses:

  • NJ X-ray License
  • DANB Certified Dental Assistant (CDA)
  • NJ Registered Dental Assistant (RDA)

Upon passing, Monokian Dentistry will cover approved education costs, exam fees, and license applications through a signed reimbursement agreement.**

What You’ll Receive

  • Paid, hands-on training from a supportive, experienced team
  • Healthcare benefits (medical, dental, vision)
  • PTO, sick time, holidays, bereavement leave
  • 401(k) with company match
  • AFLAC (life, disability, accident, and more)
  • Free uniforms and paid CE/licensure renewal
  • Employee discount program and assistance program
