Dental Hygienist
Job Description
Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) – Private Practice
$50–$58 per hour | One-hour adult appointments | Single-booked hygiene | 5% 401(k) match + profit sharing
Stono Dental Care is seeking a skilled and compassionate Registered Dental Hygienist to join our growing, locally owned private practice in the West Ashley/Johns Island area.
We recently expanded our doctor team and are adding a hygienist to support our growing patient base. We believe excellent hygiene care requires adequate time, strong clinical support and respect for the hygienist’s professional judgment. Adult prophylaxis appointments are scheduled for a full hour, and our hygienists are single-booked—never expected to manage two patients simultaneously.
What We Offer
- Guaranteed base pay of $50–$58 per hour, based on experience, qualifications and schedule availability
- Bonus opportunities paid in addition to the guaranteed hourly rate
- 401(k) with a 5% employer match
- Additional profit-sharing opportunities
- Paid time off and paid holidays
- Healthcare flexible spending account
- One-hour adult prophylaxis appointments
- Single-booked hygiene with no double-booking
- Established patient base
- Weekday schedule with no weekends
- Modern technology and a comprehensive clinical environment
- The stability and personal atmosphere of a locally owned private practice
About the Position
Our hygienists are important clinical partners—not simply providers expected to keep a schedule moving. You will have the time and technology to provide thorough care, educate patients and collaborate directly with our dentists.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Comprehensive periodontal assessment and charting
- Adult and pediatric prophylaxis
- Periodontal maintenance and scaling and root planing
- Digital radiographs and intraoral photography
- Oral-cancer screening and preventive care
- Clear, individualized patient education
- Collaboration with our dentists regarding clinical findings and treatment needs
- Accurate clinical documentation and excellent infection-control practices
Our practice uses digital radiography, intraoral cameras, digital photography, intraoral scanning, CBCT imaging and other modern technology to help patients understand their oral health and make informed treatment decisions.
Why Stono Dental Care?
Stono Dental Care provides comprehensive family and restorative dentistry, including dental implants, clear aligners, oral surgery and sedation dentistry. This gives our hygienists the opportunity to work in a clinically advanced environment while building lasting relationships with an established patient population.
We value clinicians who are thorough, dependable and committed to continued growth. Your observations, patient relationships and clinical judgment will be respected as important parts of the patient’s overall care.
Qualifications
- Active South Carolina dental hygiene license
- Current CPR certification
- Strong clinical, communication and documentation skills
- Patient-centered and compassionate approach
- Dependable, professional and collaborative
Local-anesthesia and nitrous-oxide certifications are preferred but not required.
If you are looking for a private practice where you will have appropriate appointment time, excellent technology, competitive compensation and a meaningful role in patient care, we would enjoy meeting you.
Please submit your résumé through Indeed. No cover letter is required. All inquiries will be handled confidentially.
