• Oversee staff in cleanings, impressions for prosthetics, oral hygiene programs, and accurate recordkeeping
• Perform and interpret radiographic examinations

• Submit monthly dental department activity reports
• Develop and update departmental policies and procedures
• Participate in staff development and ensure compliance with facility standards
