Why Work Here

What We Won't Ask You to Do

We tell patients what their teeth need and, just as importantly, what they don't. No pressure, no over-recommending. That's published on our own website, in front of every patient who reads it — which makes it a standard you'd be working to, not a slogan on a careers page.

[[TO CONFIRM: does either role carry treatment, sales or commission targets? If not, replace this paragraph with one plain sentence: There are no treatment targets here, and no commission on what you sell.]]

We're a small clinic on Jalan 24/70A, above the Burger King corner lot, with street and basement parking around it. Five minutes' drive from Mont Kiara and Publika, and easy enough from the Penchala Link or Jalan Duta. Patients come by appointment only, and there's no layer of management between you and the dentist you're working with — that's either the appeal or it isn't.

  • Seven dentists under one roof, across orthodontics, oral & maxillofacial surgery, periodontics and restorative dentistry — plus dedicated endodontic care
  • 21 treatments across family, specialist and aesthetic dentistry, so the case mix is wide
  • Three of our dentists lecture or run hands-on training, at IMU, UKM and for practising general dentists
  • Medical-grade MELAG autoclave sterilisation, sealed single-patient instrument sets and single-use items
  • Low-dose digital radiography, rotary endodontics, in-clinic laser whitening and electrocautery for tongue-tie release
  • A team that works in English, Mandarin and Bahasa Malaysia

How to Apply

Three Steps, No Forms

1

Send us your CV

WhatsApp us, or email careers@dentalk.com.my. Say which role you're applying for, and roughly when you could start.

2

We read it and reply

[[TO CONFIRM: who reviews applications, and roughly how long a reply takes]]. We'd rather tell you no than leave you wondering.

3

Come and see the clinic

If it looks like a fit, we'll invite you in to meet us and look around. You can ask your questions before either of us decides anything.

We're a small clinic, so applications get read between patients. If you haven't heard back and you're still interested, message us again — we won't mind the nudge.

Anything you send us is used only to consider you for the role and isn't shared outside the clinic — email careers@dentalk.com.my any time to have it deleted.

Quick Answers

What does the role pay?

[[TO CONFIRM: salary range for the nurse, and the rate or arrangement for the locum]]. We'd rather talk about it openly than make you ask twice.

Do you offer EPF, SOCSO and EIS?

[[TO CONFIRM: which statutory contributions apply, and to which role — employee and locum arrangements usually differ]].

What are the working days and hours?

[[TO CONFIRM: the nurse's working days and shift pattern, and which sessions the locum would cover]]. The clinic itself is open Monday to Friday, 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM, and Saturday and Sunday, 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM, with selected public holidays. Those are the clinic's hours, not one person's roster.

Can I apply if I'm still training, or newly qualified?

[[TO CONFIRM: whether a trainee dental nurse is acceptable, and the minimum experience for each role]]. For the locum role, Malaysian Dental Council registration and a current Annual Practising Certificate are not negotiable.

When do you need someone to start?

[[TO CONFIRM: the start date for each role, and whether it's flexible for someone serving notice]].

Do I need to speak Mandarin or Bahasa Malaysia?

Our team speaks English, Mandarin and Bahasa Malaysia between them, and our website is published in six languages — those are two separate things. [[TO CONFIRM: which languages this role actually needs, and which are simply useful]].

Think one of these is you?

Send us a message with your CV and we'll take it from there — a real person reads it, not a form.
