Front Desk Receptionist Dental Office

The Smile Institute Family Orthodontics & Children’s Dentistry is looking for a friendly, organized, and dependable Front Desk Receptionist to join our team in Manahawkin, NJ.


Our office is a busy, family-oriented orthodontic and pediatric dental practice. We are looking for someone who enjoys working with people, is comfortable in a fast-paced environment, and can stay organized while handling multiple responsibilities at once.


What we're looking for


The ideal candidate is someone who:

• Has previous receptionist, front desk, or clerical experience
• Has excellent customer service and communication skills
• Is comfortable with computers and able to learn new software quickly
• Is neat, organized, and detail-oriented
• Can multitask while remaining calm and friendly
• Has a good memory and can follow office systems and procedures
• Enjoys interacting with children and families
• Is comfortable answering phones, scheduling appointments, and communicating with patients
• Is willing to help keep the front office and patient areas clean, organized, and presentable
• Works well as part of a team and is willing to jump in wherever needed

Dental office experience is strongly preferred. Experience submitting dental insurance claims is a major plus.


Typical responsibilities


You will help greet patients and families, answer phones, schedule and confirm appointments, work with patient information in our computer system, assist with dental insurance and claims, collect and record payments, and help keep the front desk running smoothly throughout the day.


Some days are very busy and require constant multitasking; other times are quieter. We are looking for someone who can stay productive, organized, and helpful in both environments.


Schedule


Our typical workday begins at 8:30 AM and finishes around 5:30 PM, with a lunch break from 1:00–2:00 PM. Some days may run slightly later depending on the patient schedule.
