Dental Receptionist

A Dental Receptionist supports the front office of a dental practice in the Bronx by greeting patients, managing appointments, and keeping daily administrative work organized. Typical duties include answering phones, confirming visits, updating patient records, processing check-in and check-out tasks, and coordinating basic communication between patients and clinical staff. The role may also involve handling insurance information, collecting forms, and helping maintain a smooth patient flow throughout the day. Good customer service, clear communication, attention to detail, and familiarity with common office software are important baseline qualifications. Prior experience in a medical or dental setting is helpful, though not always required if the candidate learns quickly and works well in a fast-paced environment. This position is usually performed at a reception desk with frequent sitting, standing, and regular use of a computer and phone. The schedule is full time and may include standard weekday hours; compensation may be negotiated within the posted range based on relevant experience.
