  • Taking digital radiographs/X-rays
  • Assisting doctors and hygienists with charting

  • Help order supplies and keep things running smoothly
What We're Looking For

  • A positive attitude and team-first mindset
Benefits
We offer a great benefits package for eligible team members, including:
  • Health plan
  • 401(k)
  • Dental benefits (including immediate family)
  • CE courses
  • Paid time off
Why Livonia Dental Team?
We're part of Seva Dental Team, which means you get the best of both worlds: a supportive local practice team and a larger organization that believes in service, growth, and helping people do their best work.
If you're ready to join a team that works hard, supports each other, and takes great care of patients, we'd love to meet you.
