From the day in 2006 when we first opened our doors to patients, Smilebuilderz has been a dental practice of diversity and inclusion, as is evidenced by the more than 25 languages our current employees speak. We have a zero tolerance policy regarding all discrimination and harassment, and our HR team upholds the Smilebuilderz open door policy. We’re a company with high performance standards and we strive to hold all employees accountable to those standards as well as to our core values of integrity, compassion, care, and innovation.

Pros

If you're lucky and get hired at the right time, they have comprehensive training, but a lot of people are just thrown into it. Most of the coworkers are nice people. Some of the dentists actually care about their patients and try to do well by them. Full hour lunch (most days). Dental coverage (if you see SmileBuilderz for it).

Cons

Offices are open 12 hours (8am to 8pm) 6 days per week, you work open to close on the days your team works, yes everyone works every other Saturday 8 am to 8 pm. You are expected to arrived by 7:30 for front desk and 7:45 for clinical. You are expected to remain in the building until the last patient leaves (which is often closer to 9 than 8). You will not have a life. If you have children, do not choose to work here if you can at all avoid it. They are constantly running behind and I spent too much of my day apologizing to upset patient's about it. They continuously add things to your job description and expect you to do them, without giving you any more time or pay. The Health Insurance is horrendous and pays for basically nothing. They will constantly ask you to pick up shifts on your days off and will make you feel like a horrible person if you say no (hint: say no). During orientation they make it seem like they promote from within and that you'll get raises. Neither of these is true. They have recently hired two brand new people (who haven't done dentistry before) for a slightly higher better paying role that requires knowledge of the practices and codes, etc. without first even offering the positions to two people in the same office who have both been there long enough to be able to transition to the position with ease.

Working at a high-performing dental practice requires that each employee consistently works to the best of his or her ability because our patients demand nothing less, and those who excel at delivering outstanding care to their patients have many opportunities for advancement. We expect employees to give their best efforts every day, which is why they are off every other day and every other weekend. Smilebuilderz offers full-time employees three different healthcare plans from which to choose, all of which exceed the Affordable Care Act’s Minimum Essential Coverage requirements. All three plans are designed to provide coverage options depending on employees’ health needs, and all three plans have pre-tax healthcare savings account options to help cover medical expenses.
