As a Dental Nurse in Milton Keynes MK8, you will provide vital chairside assistance to dentists and hygienists, ensuring the smooth and efficient running of the surgery.

By applying through Phone Direct, you gain access to our extensive network of local healthcare employers, ensuring you are matched with a role that suits your skills and career aspirations.

Key Responsibilities
- Provide comprehensive chairside assistance to the dentist during a wide range of dental procedures, ensuring the correct instruments and materials are prepared and passed efficiently.
- Maintain the highest standards of infection prevention and control, including the meticulous sterilisation and decontamination of all dental instruments and equipment within the surgery.
- Deliver exceptional patient care, including welcoming patients, explaining procedures to alleviate anxiety, and ensuring their comfort and safety throughout their visit.
- Manage clinical stock levels, order supplies, and ensure the surgery is fully equipped, clean, and compliant with all Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and Care Quality Commission (CQC) regulations.
- Accurately update patient records using practice software systems, handle laboratory work, and support with administrative tasks such as appointment scheduling and billing queries.
What We're Looking For
- A recognised qualification in Dental Nursing (e.g., National Diploma, NVQ Level 3, or equivalent) and valid registration with the General Dental Council (GDC).
- Proven experience as a Dental Nurse, with a solid understanding of clinical procedures, cross-infection control protocols, and health and safety in a dental setting.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a compassionate, calm, and professional manner when dealing with patients of all ages and backgrounds.
- A proactive, reliable, and team-oriented individual with strong organisational skills and the ability to work effectively under pressure in a busy practice environment.
