JOB DESCRIPTION QUALIFIED/TRAINEE DENTAL NURSE/RECEPTIONIST/PRACTICE ADMINISTRATOR

Hours of work: 8.30-5.30pm (no overtime between 8am-6pm). 5 days per week. 1-2 planned late nights per week (Please expect these to be long days). Overtime will be repaid as time off in lieu. No overtime payments due to the current financial constraints. Dental courses occur on Saturdays (1 per month approx.). You will be required to attend the study club events and courses for your education and because they are the means by which you develop an independent relationship with our referrers (which is an essential part of your role)

Period of appointment: Indefinite

Employment type: Employed

Salary: For trainee nurses, salary is minimum wage + a discretionary bonus that could bring your hourly rate up to £14/hr dependent to job performance. £15/hr minimum FOR QUALIFIED DENTAL NURSES. Salary increases with post-reg qualifications e.g. Head nurse (£2/hr extra), Implant Nurse (£2/hr extra), sedation/radiography (£1hr extra each). THE PRACTICE WILL PAY FOR THESE COURSES

Responsibilities: Provision of outstanding patient care within the scope of practice laid down by the General Dental Council. Teaching and supervision of trainee/qualified dental nurses. General practice administration: paperwork, CQC compliance, courses and referrers. Everything that is required to keep the practice running smoothly

In a specialist practice such as ours, we feel that dental nurses are an essential and under-utilised part of a dental practice. Their clinical and academic experience means that they are perfectly placed to practice within their full scope and also perfectly placed to ensure that they help the specialist dentists and practice owners to ensure that the systems designed are implemented so that the purpose of the business is achieved. This hybrid role also gives the candidate more varied experience at work and also ensures that the dental nurse feels like the essential team member that they are.

London Dental Specialists is a specialist, referral dental practice based in central London. We currently accept referrals for periodontics (management of periodontitis, soft tissue grafting, functional and aesthetic crown lengthening), prosthodontics (crowns, veneers and dentures), orthodontics (mainly fixed labial appliances), endodontics (root canal treatments, post/instrument removal, perforation repair) and implant dentistry (implant placement, bone grafting, full arch implants). Our unique selling point is based around management of complex cases where the specialists need to be in very close contact for excellent results.
