Experienced EDDA / Expanded Duties Dental Assistant

Four days on. Three days off. Full-time benefits.

  • Full-time
  • 4-day week
  • $24–$30/hr + performance incentives
  • Medical, Dental, 401K, PTO, Continuing Education

This is not a volume-driven office. We work with two doctors, advanced technology, and a team that holds each other to a high standard. If you want a place where your skills are stretched, your growth is tracked, and your effort is rewarded—this is it.

You’ll play an important role in creating efficient clinical flow, anticipating the doctor’s needs, educating and reassuring patients, supporting comprehensive treatment, utilizing advanced dental technology, and helping patients understand the connection between their oral health and overall health.

What your day looks like

  • Four-handed chairside assisting with advanced technology—CBCT, 3D scanners, CO2 and diode lasers, and intraoral cameras
  • Delegated procedures including composites, provisionals, impressions, cord, sealants, whitening, and anything else you are trained in
  • Protecting the doctor’s time by staying one step ahead
  • Trust-transfer handoffs between clinical and front-office team members
  • Morning huddle at 7:45am so you know the day before it starts

This role is for you if

  • You are comfortable with modern dental technology and eager to continue learning.
  • You thrive on being the most prepared person in the room, anticipate what is needed, and take initiative.
  • You can work independently chairside and communicate confidently and compassionately with patients.
  • You want to grow into leadership and will show it before you’re asked

Compensation: $24–$30/hr based on experience, plus performance incentives
Schedule: 4-day week, 7:30am–5:30pm
Requirements: 3+ years preferred of chairside assisting experience; EDDA preferred

Active hiring

Dental Hygienist — Part-Time and Full-Time

Long-term career. Not a temp gig.

  • Multiple days available
  • Private practice
  • Career-track position

This is not a volume-driven office. We run on the Healthy Smile Baseline—a whole-health philosophy that connects what we see in the mouth to everything else happening in the body. If that’s how you already think, you’ll feel at home here.

We’re looking for a hygienist who sees the oral-systemic connection, presents it with confidence, and helps patients act on it.

What you’ll be doing

  • Running appointments with clinical autonomy within a team that backs you up
  • Identifying periodontal, restorative, occlusal, and airway concerns and connecting them to medical history
  • Motivating patients to act; same-day production starts in your chair
  • Presenting the Healthy Smile Baseline as something you believe, not as a script

You’re the right fit if

  • You see hygiene as a clinical specialty, not a cleaning service
  • You can talk confidently about airway, sleep, occlusion, and systemic health
  • You understand people just as much as bacteria—and love both
  • You want continuing education, growth, and a practice that invests back in you

Schedule: We’ll discuss what is right for you.
License: Active Colorado hygiene license and CPR certification; anesthesia and diode-laser experience preferred

Associate Dentist

Private practice. Real autonomy. A genuine path to ownership.

Dental Horizons is a relationship-driven, whole-health practice where patients choose care and clinicians grow into leaders. We make decisions that create a triple win for our patients, our practice, and our people.

The ownership path

Dr. Kelson is transitioning to sleep dentistry. This role is a genuine path to becoming the lead clinical owner of a practice that is already built, profitable, and running the right way. The associate role is designed to evolve into full practice ownership.

What you’re walking into

  • EDDAs trained to protect your chair time so you can focus on diagnosis and treatment
  • CBCT, 3D scanning, CO2 and diode lasers, crown milling, Nikon DSLR and intraoral cameras
  • A well-educated patient base that values dentistry and arrives ready to invest
  • Morning huddles at 7:45am with energy, context, and a clear plan
  • A team that reads, trains, and implements—not just talks about improving

This role is built for you if

  • You want to own a practice, not just work in one
  • You’re leaving corporate dentistry and want your clinical judgment respected
  • You believe oral and whole-body health are inseparable
  • You pursue continuing education and implement what you learn
  • Progress over perfection is a value, not a slogan

Compensation: Commission on net production
Schedule: 4 days/week, with a 4-day weekend every other week; 7:30am–5:30pm
License: Active Colorado DORA license; 4–7 years of experience preferred; clean disciplinary history

Financial & Insurance Coordinator

Four days on. Three days off. Full-time benefits.

  • Full-time
  • 4-day week
  • $25–$28/hr + incentives
  • Medical, Dental, 401K, PTO, Continuing Education

This position isn’t open today—send your resume and we’ll be in touch when timing aligns.

We don’t push procedures—we help patients understand their health and make confident decisions. The Financial Coordinator removes the financial barriers that might otherwise keep a patient from moving forward.

Insurance is complicated. Most patients don’t understand their benefits, and when the financial conversation isn’t handled with skill and warmth, they don’t move forward with treatment. That’s where you come in.

What you’ll own

  • Benefits verification, daily claim submission, and AR monitoring with 30/60/90 ratios
  • Financial arrangements for complex treatment plans before treatment starts
  • CareCredit and membership-plan presentations that remove payment barriers
  • Past-due follow-up using protocols professionally, not with pressure
  • Keeping the team sharp on coding accuracy and financial documentation

You’re right for this if

  • Dental and medical billing feel like languages you speak fluently
  • You can ask patients for money and make it feel like help, not a transaction
  • Carestack and a well-organized AR report are already in your toolkit

Compensation: $25–$28/hr + incentives; Medical, Dental, PTO, 401K
Schedule: Monday–Thursday or Tuesday–Friday rotating; 7:30am–5:30pm
Preferred: Carestack; medical billing for sleep appliances a plus

Scheduling & Patient Coordinator

Four days on. Three days off. Full-time benefits.

  • Full-time
  • 4-day week
  • $25–$30/hr + incentives
  • Medical, Dental, 401K, PTO, Continuing Education

This position isn’t open today—send your resume and we’ll be in touch when timing aligns.

This is not a volume-driven office. When the schedule runs well here, patients feel cared for—not processed. You’ll make that happen from first call to checkout.

You will be the connection point between our patients, the schedule, and the dental team. You will own the doctor and hygiene schedules and help the practice meet its daily production goals, while making sure every patient feels welcomed, informed, and cared for. This is much more than a front-desk position: it is a chance to own the patient experience, the schedule, and treatment coordination.

What you’ll own

  • Schedule: Own the doctor and hygiene schedules, keeping them full, productive, and on time.
  • Hygiene Recall & Retention: Keep patients in continuing care through recall and reactivation.
  • Treatment Coordination: Understand treatment plans and present them clearly and confidently, working closely with our Financial Coordinator.
  • Communication, Flow & Records: Be the first voice patients hear, keep the team aligned on patient flow, and keep accurate records in CareStack.
  • Patient Experience: Welcome every patient warmly, guide new patients through onboarding, and make sure each one leaves informed, cared for, and confident about their next steps.

You’re right for this role if

  • You have dental front-office, scheduling, or treatment coordination experience. Experience with CareStack or similar software is a plus.
  • You are someone who is warm and positive who genuinely enjoys people; organized and detail-oriented; proactive and comfortable being accountable for results; and calm when plans change. You see the big picture of the schedule and care about the success of the whole practice, not just a list of tasks.
  • You know—or learn quickly—Carestack, Microsoft Office, and AI scheduling tools.

Compensation: $25–$30/hour based on experience, plus performance incentives
Schedule: 4-day week, 7:30am–5:30pm
Requirements: 1 year of dental front desk or scheduling experience; Carestack a plus

  • Medical, Dental, 401K, PTO, Continuing Education

This position isn’t open today—send your resume and we’ll be in touch when timing aligns.

The Office Manager here doesn’t just keep the lights on—they set the standard, develop the team, and make sure every patient and employee experience reflects what Dental Horizons is building.

Dr. Kelson is growing this practice with intention. This role is for someone who can hold that vision operationally, lead with high emotional intelligence, run with data, and build systems that work without them in the room.

What you’ll be responsible for

  • Team development through monthly one-on-ones, morning huddles, training, accountability, and culture
  • Building, communicating, and verifying systems and SOPs
  • Gathering, analyzing, and acting on monthly reports across departments

  • You make decisions from reports, not gut feel
