Dental Smile Clinic – Broxbourne
Want to learn a skill, work with people and build a career?
We're looking for a Trainee Dental Nurse to join our team at Dental Smile Clinic.
This is a great opportunity for someone who is hands-on, enjoys working with people and likes learning through practical experience.
You don't need previous dental experience. We're looking for someone who is reliable, enthusiastic, organised and keen to develop new skills.
If you're interested in learning through a Dental Nursing Apprenticeship, we'd be particularly keen to hear from you.
What does a Dental Nurse actually do?
Dental nursing is a varied role and you'll be involved in the day-to-day running of the surgery.
You'll learn how to:
- Prepare surgeries and equipment for different treatments
- Assist the dentist during procedures
- Look after and reassure patients
- Prepare dental materials and instruments
- Clean, sterilise and maintain dental instruments
- Follow infection prevention and control procedures
- Understand how different dental treatments are carried out
- Keep the surgery organised and ready for the next patient
- Work effectively as part of a professional dental team
Every day will bring something different, and you'll gradually build your knowledge, skills and confidence.
Why choose an Apprenticeship?
A Dental Nursing Apprenticeship allows you to earn while you learn, gaining a recognised qualification alongside experience in a real dental practice.
It's a great route for someone who enjoys learning through doing rather than simply sitting in a classroom.
You'll:
- Earn while you learn
- Gain a recognised dental nursing qualification
- Develop practical skills in a working dental practice
- Learn from experienced dental professionals
- Build confidence working with patients and a clinical team
- Gain valuable workplace experience
- Have a clear route into a qualified dental nursing career
There will still be theory and studying as part of the apprenticeship, but you'll be able to put what you learn into practice every day.
Why Dental Smile Clinic?
Dental Smile Clinic is an extremely modern, state-of-the-art dental practice, giving you the opportunity to train in a professional environment using the latest technology and equipment.
As a trainee, you'll gain experience across a wide range of dentistry, from routine examinations and general dental care through to advanced and cosmetic treatments.
You'll have the opportunity to see and learn about:
- General and preventive dentistry
- Cosmetic dentistry
- Smile makeovers
- Teeth whitening
- Invisalign and teeth straightening
- Composite bonding
- Implant dentistry
- Digital scanning and modern dental technology
This means you'll gain experience of much more than the basics of dental nursing. You'll see how modern dentistry can transform patients' smiles and improve their confidence.
You'll be part of a busy, professional practice and gain a strong foundation for a long-term career in dental nursing.
Who are we looking for?
You could be a school or college leaver looking for your first career, or someone considering a change of direction.
Most importantly, you will be:
- Practical and hands-on
- Keen to learn
- Reliable and punctual
- Friendly and comfortable speaking to people
- Organised and able to follow instructions
- A team player
- Someone who takes pride in doing things properly
- Positive and willing to get involved
You don't need to know anything about dentistry when you start. All you need is the right attitude and a willingness to learn.
Dental nursing can be busy, so this role is ideal for someone who enjoys being active, involved and part of a team.
