• Perform all aspects of clinical hygiene: scaling, root planing, polishing, fluoride, sealants, whitening

• Educate and motivate patients toward better oral health through prevention-focused care

• Support a practice culture grounded in professionalism, ethics, and patient-centered service

• Work closely with leadership to onboard new team members and drive practice-wide improvements
  

What We’re Looking For:

• Extended Health & Wellness Benefits
  Enjoy comprehensive extended health benefits designed to support your well-being, including medical, dental, prescription coverage, and access to free virtual health services through Dialogue.

• Total Rewards Package
  Take advantage of exclusive discounts on gyms, travel, retail, home and auto insurance, pet insurance, and more – all part of a rewards package built to support your lifestyle.

• Career Development & Learning
  We’re invested in your growth. Gain access to industry-leading continuing education through the DC Institute and discounted membership to rdhu, so you can stay ahead of the curve and continue to evolve in your profession.

• Professional Networking & CE Opportunities
  Connect and collaborate with other dental professionals through continuing education events, peer learning opportunities, and a supportive clinical network.
