Southern Maine Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is looking to hire an oral surgery assistant.

The job of an oral surgery assistant requires someone who can multi task, is a quick thinker, can remain calm in high stress situations and who is driven by working in a healthcare setting.

Requirements

 Review patient chart in preparation for upcoming exam and/or surgeries

All assistants must obtain and maintain the State of Maine radiology license and basic

lifesaving certification. SMOMS helps by providing access to educational websites and

guides as well as covering the cost of the radiology license both initially and annual

fees.

SMOMS continues to invest in the latest technology and has purchased four X Guide

machines, a SprintRay 3D printer, and three CS 9600 CBCT scanners. We encourage

our staff to invest in themselves by becoming fully trained in using these pieces of

equipment and other essential topics for their job, therefore we provide regular

workshops, in service meetings both in house and at off site locations.

Biddeford turnpike exit, close to popular retail stores, restaurants, walking paths

and gyms. SMOMS Windham office is located off route 302. Not by accident this

office is also convenient to the heart of North Windham with lots to see, places to
