Skills:

Dental receptionists need a variety of skills to be successful in their positions. The most important skills for these professionals include:

Interpersonal skills

Dental assistants are regularly interacting with patients, dentists, dental assistants and other individuals in a dentist's office.

  • Responsibility
  • Teamwork
  • Active listening
  • Empathy
  • Patience
  • Leadership
  • Dependability
  • Emotional intelligence
  • Flexibility

Detail orientation

Dental receptionists are responsible for maintaining patient records, managing dentists' schedules and overseeing a variety of administrative information. In order to do so effectively, these professionals must be very detail-oriented. This skill allows dental receptionists to pay close attention to all details when working on a project or task and complete tasks in an error-free manner. Ways that dental receptionists can incorporate detail orientation into their daily tasks include:

  • Keep tasks organized
  • Observing situations and making note of large and small details
  • Fixing mistakes as they arise rather than waiting
  • Limiting distractions
  • Practicing good time management habits
  • Following a set routine each day
  • Being punctual in the workplace

Customer service skills

A dental receptionist's primary role is to support patients and provide assistance when necessary. They are often the first person a patient sees when they arrive at the dentist's office and the last person a patient sees as they make any final product purchases and leave. Strong customer service skills ensure the dental receptionist is in-tune to patients' needs, manages patient issues and needs effectively and leaves patients with a positive impression.

Examples of customer service skills that dental receptionists benefit from include:

  • Patience
  • Communication skills
  • Active listening
  • Empathy
  • Conflict resolution
  • Attentiveness
  • Adaptability
  • Decision-making skills

Professionalism

Dental receptionists must maintain professionalism throughout the course of their workday. Professionalism refers to a person's ability to act in a professional and respectable manner. Examples of professionalism skills that dental receptionists need include competency, integrity, accountability and emotional intelligence.

Computer and Technology skills

Organizational skills

Dental receptionists are responsible for the majority of the organization done within a dental office. From filing patient information to creating filtered reports for communication, these professionals need strong organizational skills to effectively manage all of the information that goes into and out of the office. Examples of organizational skills include strategic planning, delegation, goal setting, time management and analytical thinking.
