Descrição da oferta de emprego

Hygiene is where most patients decide whether they trust a practice, and it is the hardest job in the building to do well when you are handed forty minutes and a broken schedule.

We give our hygienists appointment times that match the patient in the chair, help on the days the column warrants it, and a doctor who reads the periodontal charting and backs the recommendation.

If you have spent years running behind in a practice that treats hygiene as a loss leader, this will be a different experience.

What you'll do

• Perform prophylaxis, scaling and root planing, and periodontal maintenance appropriate to each patient's diagnosis.
• Complete full periodontal charting and take radiographs on the recall interval.
• Screen for oral cancer, decay, and periodontal disease, and flag findings for the doctor.
• Educate patients on home care in a way that actually changes what they do at the sink.
• Apply fluoride and sealants, and administer local anesthetic where state law allows.
• Keep clinical notes complete and maintain sterilization standards.

What we're looking for

• Active dental hygiene license in Texas and current CPR/BLS certification.
• Local anesthesia certification where the state offers it.
• Thorough periodontal charting habits — we read them, and we treat from them.
• Gentle hands and the patience to bring a fearful patient back onto a schedule.
• New graduates welcome; you will work alongside an experienced hygienist while you find your rhythm.

What we offer

• Competitive pay, reviewed annually and benchmarked above local market rates.
• Sign-on bonus and referral bonus.
• Paid time off.
• Health insurance coverage.
• Paid gym membership for you and your family.
• Year-end bonus for performance above target.
• Continuing education and license renewal paid for.
• Appointment times scheduled to the patient, not to a fixed block.
