Dental Hygienist - Patient

Job Description

Want to be directly involved in your patients' specialty periodontal care from start to finish? Do you get fulfillment from co-diagnosing and treatment planning care for your patients? Do you want to utilize your full scope of dental hygiene skills with the latest imaging/scanning/3D printing technology? Are you interested in a career where you do more than dental cleanings? If so, our team would love to meet you!

Dr. Andrew Glover recently acquired Perio Partner, a periodontal specialty clinic in Burnsville, MN, and has invested to modernize the practice while keeping a fun and relaxed atmosphere. We are looking for a dental hygienist who would primarily see our patients for their initial exam to gather all data (clinical charting, imaging) and work with Dr. Glover to co-diagnose and treatment plan care for our patients.

Periodontal maintenance and SRP would also be performed, on a limited basis.

We are open to any experience level and will work with you to increase your skill set, where needed. Fitting into our culture is most important to us for this position. As a small office with very little turnover, we work closely together to provide excellent periodontal care for southern Minnesota. Our team supports each other and makes sure we have fun every day!

If you are looking for a drama-free workplace where you can take care of your patients and feel supported by the entire team, then this is the position for you.

Perio Partner is a place for you to grow in your career, and we are open to both part‑time and full time candidates. We also offer competitive benefits (401k program, medical insurance, in‑house dental plan, PTO, etc.).
