Three steps

Hire a Dental virtual assistant in 3 steps

From your first brief to a Dental virtual assistant working in Dentrix and Eaglesoft, you stay with one recruiter from scope through start.

Scope the Dental virtual assistant role

Tell us the work to own, from dental scheduling and patient calls to insurance and billing, plus the systems, coverage hours, and outcomes that matter. We turn that into a focused search brief.

Review vetted Dental virtual assistant candidates

We screen candidates for dental scheduling and patient calls, insurance and billing, and practical fluency in Dentrix and Eaglesoft. You review a shortlist with relevant context.

Hire and onboard your Dental virtual assistant

Choose your candidate and hiring model. We coordinate the handoff into your tools, operating process, and first-week priorities.

What changes for your team

Best for dental practices that need scheduling, insurance verification, and patient follow-up handled consistently.

Faster patient response times

Calls, appointment requests and insurance questions get answered inside the hours you set instead of whenever the front desk catches a break.

Fewer missed calls

Every call during your hours gets picked up, so fewer patients book somewhere else.

Cleaner insurance and billing

Benefits get verified before the visit and claims go out clean, so fewer come back denied.

Fuller chairs

Reminders and recall outreach keep the schedule full instead of leaving open chair time.

Lower staffing overhead

One dedicated hire costs less than the salary, benefits and payroll taxes a full-time in-house receptionist adds up to.

More chair-side time

Administrative work gets handled off to the side, so the team spends more time with patients instead of the phone.

Why teams choose HireHawk for this role

Screened for dental insurance fluency

Dual coverage, waiting periods and missing-tooth clauses trip up anyone without dental-specific billing experience. We screen for it directly.

Vetted before you meet them

5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented to clients.

Bilingual where it matters

Bilingual English and Spanish talent from Latin America, strongest in medical and legal.

Two ways to hire

Fully managed global talent from $12 an hour, or US direct hire from 12.5% of first-year salary. Compare the two on our [staffing solutions page](/solutions/).

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hiring for this role

Is this HIPAA compliant?

Yes. Your assistant is trained to the same HIPAA standard your practice is already required to meet for any front-desk hire, since dental records count as covered PHI the same as medical ones. That training happens before they ever touch a patient record or take a call on your behalf.

What practice management systems do you work in?

Your assistant already works in Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental and most standard dental practice management platforms, so scheduling and billing don't stall while they learn the software. Name your actual system on the discovery call, and we match you with someone who already runs your exact platform daily.

Can they verify dental insurance before appointments?

Yes, benefits and eligibility verification are already part of the role, so you are not finding out about a coverage gap after the patient has already been seen. Tell us your payer mix on the discovery call, and we match you with someone who already knows how dental insurance actually works.

How fast can I hire a dental virtual assistant?

You'll see vetted candidates within 10 business days of your discovery call, so you're not waiting weeks to start interviewing. Once you've made your pick, onboarding takes 21 days, whether the hire joins your payroll directly or comes on as a fully managed global hire through HireHawk.

Can they cover multiple providers or locations?

Yes. Tell us your practice structure on the discovery call, how many chairs, providers and locations you actually run, and we staff to that reality instead of assuming one assistant can stretch across every calendar without anything slipping through the cracks along the way, unnoticed until a patient walks in confused.

What if the assistant is not the right fit?

You're covered either way. If you go with global talent, you get 100% performance replacement at no extra cost. If you choose US direct hire, you're backed by a 60-day replacement guarantee, so a bad fit doesn't turn into a bad quarter for your business.
