Job Description

The hygienist will be responsible for seeing 6–10 patients per day. Must be punctual, detail-oriented, able to multitask, flexible with hours, and committed to maintaining infection control and OSHA protocols. In addition to prophylaxis and scaling/root planing, our hygiene staff provides chlorhexidine treatments, fluoride varnishes, and occasional sealant placements.
Average adult recall patients are scheduled for one hour, which may include periodontal probing and/or check-up radiographs when indicated, and 30–45 minutes for children. Hygienists schedule their own follow-up appointments to allow appropriate time for individual patient needs (e.g., 45 minutes for 3-month recalls, 75 minutes for more complex patients, etc.). All scaling and root planing patients receive a 4–6-week recall to evaluate treatment efficacy and are referred to specialists if no improvement is observed.
