Oral Health Therapist
Adult Scope

Work to your full scope. Take ownership of your patients.

Keep raising the standard.

At Dental Design Co, we are building a clinical team around a simple belief: great patient care comes from great people who care about what they do.

We are looking for an experienced Oral Health Therapist with adult scope who wants to be recognised as a clinician, take genuine ownership of their patients and continue developing within a high-performing dental team.

This is not a role where we want you simply moving from one scale and clean to the next. We want you thinking clinically, communicating with patients, identifying their needs, working collaboratively with our dentists and helping patients understand and continue their care.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

  • Comprehensive examinations within scope
  • Preventive and periodontal care
  • Caries, periodontal and soft-tissue assessment
  • Radiograph and OPG interpretation
  • Treatment planning within scope
  • Patient education and prevention
  • Identifying when further dental care is required
  • Working collaboratively with our dentists when care extends beyond your scope
  • Rebooking and continuity of care
  • Following through when something needs attention

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

  • Patients feel heard.
  • Patients receive thorough care.
  • Patients understand their oral health.
  • Problems are identified early.
  • Patients know what needs attention next.
  • Care is continued rather than unnecessarily falling through the gaps.

Ownership at DDC means seeing the patient as yours while they are in your care – not simply completing today’s procedure.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • AHPRA-registered Oral Health Therapist with adult scope
  • Ideally 2+ years of experience working to adult scope
  • Clinically thorough and confident working within scope
  • Comfortable interpreting radiographs and OPGs
  • Warm and engaging with patients
  • Proactive rather than waiting to be told
  • Accountable for your work and comfortable receiving feedback
  • Interested in continual improvement
  • Willing to support teammates rather than simply complete your own list
  • Proud of maintaining a high clinical standard

THE ENVIRONMENT

  • Intraoral scanners and cameras
  • On-site OPG imaging
  • Digital clinical workflows
  • CareStack practice management
  • In-house dental laboratory
  • Experienced dentists across a broad clinical scope
  • Clinical and administrative support

THE DDC WAY

Our expectations are simple: put people first, do what’s right, strive for better, work as one and create lasting impact.

We do not expect perfection. We do expect people to take ownership, follow through, support each other and continually look for ways to improve. 1% better every day.

WHAT YOU'LL GET

  • Competitive, above-award remuneration
  • Full-time or part-time options for the right person
  • The opportunity to genuinely work to your adult scope
  • Modern digital technology and an in-house dental laboratory
  • A collaborative dentist and OHT environment
  • Clear expectations and clinical standards
  • Professional development and room to grow
  • An established practice investing in its people, systems and future
