Dr. Louis Steinberg, practitioner at Biological Dentists of New Jersey, in West New York, is offering training for an individual to become a dental assistant. “I’m looking for a personable, responsible, caring individual who is willing to learn about allopathic—that is, traditional—medicine as well as alternative medicine,” he says.

Biological dentists use biocompatible materials in all their procedures.

“We do safe mercury removal, and we restore with materials that we may test for,” Steinberg says. Other services they  offer at their practice are periodontal therapy; laser dentistry; supportive therapy; treatment for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction and chronic face pain; orthodontics; and dental management of sleep disorders.

Work hours for the position are Monday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Thursday noon to 5 p.m. Compensation starts at $16 per hour (with raises as skills are acquired). The position offers dental benefits and paid holidays, one week of paid vacation after one year, and two years of paid vacation after two years.

While there’s no dental assistant certification, the position will include training and licensure as a dental radiologist, Steinberg says.

Location: 6050 Boulevard East, Ste. LE, West New York, NJ. To apply for the position, contact the office at 201-662-2020 or email [email protected]. For more information about the practice, visit BiologicalDentistsOfNJ.com.
