Job Description

Join a Dental Practice Where Your Work Truly Matters

Great hygiene care is about more than a cleaning. It’s about education, prevention, trust, and helping patients maintain a healthy smile for life.

At Pine Street Dental , you’ll join an established Kingston practice with deep roots in the Hudson Valley and a long-standing commitment to providing high-quality, personalized dental care. Our practice combines advanced technology and comprehensive clinical services with the personal attention patients value in a trusted dental home.

We’re looking for a Registered Dental Hygienist who is passionate about patient care, takes pride in clinical excellence, and wants to be part of a team where quality comes before quantity.

Why Pine Street Dental?

An established practice. A collaborative team. A patient-first approach.

Pine Street Dental has been serving the Kingston community for decades and has built a loyal patient base through a commitment to quality care and personal attention.

You’ll work alongside an experienced clinical team that includes 4 full-time and 2 part-time hygienists, 4 General Dentists, an Oral Surgeon, 2 Periodontists, and an Endodontist.

This collaborative environment gives you the opportunity to work alongside a wide range of clinical expertise while focusing on what you do best: providing exceptional preventive and periodontal care.

The practice also offers comprehensive dental services, including preventive, restorative, cosmetic, periodontal, endodontic, and oral surgery care.

What You’ll Do

As a Registered Dental Hygienist, you’ll be an essential part of the patient experience and a key partner in helping patients achieve long-term oral health.

You’ll:

• Provide comprehensive preventive hygiene care, including prophylaxis and scaling and root planing
• Educate patients on oral hygiene, prevention, and effective home-care techniques
• Build trusted relationships with patients and help create patients for life
• Assess and communicate oral health concerns to the dentist
• Collaborate with dentists and other members of the clinical team
• Help patients understand the importance of preventive and periodontal care
• Deliver a comfortable, welcoming, and professional patient experience
• Practice with a quality-over-quantity mindset

Our hygiene appointments are structured around 45-minute appointments , with assisted hygiene support available.

A Practice That Values Prevention

At Pine Street Dental, preventive care is an important part of helping patients maintain their oral health for the long term. The practice emphasizes professional cleanings, patient education, and periodontal health as essential components of comprehensive care.

That means your role goes beyond performing a procedure. You’ll have the opportunity to educate patients, earn their trust, and make a meaningful difference in their overall dental health.

Who We’re Looking For

We welcome both experienced hygienists and qualified new graduates who are ready to grow in a supportive clinical environment.

Our ideal candidate is:

• A licensed Registered Dental Hygienist in New York
• Passionate about preventive and periodontal care
• Committed to providing exceptional patient experiences
• Focused on quality rather than simply patient volume
• A strong communicator and patient educator
