Dental Implant Nurse in Crewe

Alchemy Dental is looking for an experienced Implant Dental Nurse to work predominantly alongside our Clinical Director and Implant Dentist.

We are specifically looking for a nurse with strong, hands-on implant experience, ideally with at least 3 years working regularly with dental implant cases.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced nurse who wants to develop further within implant dentistry and work with advanced digital implant technology.

We use Nobel Biocare implant systems, X-Guide dynamic 3D navigation, DTX imaging and R4 dental software.

Previous experience with these systems would be a significant advantage, although training can be provided to the right candidate with strong existing implant experience.

The role will be based predominantly at our Crewe practice, with travel to our Chester practice approximately one day per fortnight. While the primary focus of the role will be implant dentistry, you will also be expected to support the wider clinical team and undertake general dental nursing duties elsewhere within the practice when required.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Chairside assistance during implant surgery and restorative implant procedures
• Preparing surgeries, equipment, surgical kits and materials for implant procedures
• Supporting implant consultations and treatment planning
• Assisting with digitally guided implant surgery
• Supporting the use of Nobel Biocare implants and X-Guide dynamic 3D navigation
• Using DTX imaging and digital implant planning workflows
• Maintaining accurate clinical records, consent documentation and implant records
• Coordinating implant cases and liaising with dental laboratories
• Supporting patients before, during and following implant treatment
• Ensuring implant equipment, instruments and surgical kits are correctly prepared and maintained
• Monitoring implant stock and ensuring required components are available ahead of treatment
• Maintaining excellent infection prevention, decontamination and clinical standards
• Ensuring implant clinics are organised and run efficiently
• Providing general dental nursing support across the practice when required, including covering other clinicians and clinical sessions as needed

Experience & Requirements

• Qualified Dental Nurse with current GDC registration
• Strong existing experience assisting with dental implant treatment
• Confident assisting with implant surgery and restorative procedures
• Good understanding of the complete implant patient journey
• Excellent clinical organisation and attention to detail
• Confident communicating with patients undergoing complex treatment
• Proactive and able to anticipate the clinician's requirements
• Able to take ownership of ensuring implant clinics are fully prepared and organised
• Flexible and willing to support the wider nursing team with general dental nursing duties when required
• Willing and able to work predominantly in Crewe and approximately one day per fortnight in Chester

Highly Desirable:

• 3+ years' dental implant nursing experience
• Experience with Nobel Biocare implant systems
• Experience with X-Guide dynamic 3D navigation
• Experience using DTX imaging
• Experience using R4 dental software
• Experience supporting digital implant planning and guided surgery

Experience with our specific systems is advantageous; however, we would also consider an excellent implant nurse with substantial experience using comparable implant and digital systems.

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for a confident and experienced nurse who is genuinely interested in implant dentistry and wants to become an integral part of our implant team.

You will be working closely with our Clinical Director, so we need someone who is reliable, proactive, highly organised and able to develop a strong working relationship with the treating clinician.

You should take pride in knowing your cases, preparing thoroughly for upcoming clinics and ensuring both the clinician and patient are supported throughout the treatment journey. You will also need to be a flexible team player who is happy to support elsewhere within the practice when needed.

• Competitive pay of up to £32,000 per annum, dependent on experience
• GDC registration fees paid by the practice
• Fully funded post-qualification courses for experienced nurses
• Ongoing training and development
• Free annual scale and polish
• Christmas staff event
• Company pension
• Additional leave
• On-site parking at our Crewe practice
