Overview
Thank you for considering applying for our Dental Hygiene role.
The individual who best suits this role will be a key contributor to our success. Everyone we employ will not only treat our patients exceptionally, they will do so to each other as well.
Our recruiting process is likely different from any other process you’ve experienced before. We want you to be able to have a look into the organization before you even apply.
This is a testament to how we want to operate; doing things that are progressive, fun, and, we think, better. However, we recognize that this new way of operating will not be for everyone.
We aren’t new to dentistry. We’ve built a sound reputation throughout our decades of experience.
