Job Description

About the Role
We're a family dental practice serving patients of all ages, in a standalone building on almost an acre of garden. We're looking for one or two hygienists to cover five days a week, and you can work as many or as few of those days as you like.

We pay a per diem of $480 a day.
Schedule: Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM, with a one-hour lunch. Choose 1 to 5 days, in any combination.

Why hygienists like working here:

  • A steady pace of up to 8 patients a day, one per hour, with no double booking
  • A fee-for-service and PPO office, so you have time for thorough, quality care
  • Laser periodontal care with the AMD Picasso diode laser
  • A modern office with 11 operatories, CEREC, Invisalign, and implants
  • A supportive, close-knit team led by Dr. Uyen Thompson (USC 2008, Master's in Oral Implantology)
  • Flexible scheduling built around the days you want

What you'll do:

  • Prophies, periodontal maintenance, and scaling and root planing
  • Laser bacterial reduction (LBR) and laser-assisted periodontal therapy (LAPT)
  • X-rays, perio charting, and oral cancer screenings
  • Patient education and helping patients understand their treatment plans
  • Keeping clear, accurate notes in Dentrix

What we're looking for:

  • An active California RDH license
  • Current CPR or BLS certification
  • Laser certification for LBR and LAPT
  • California local anesthesia and nitrous oxide certification preferred
