Work Location:

In person

• You’re a WA licensed Registered Dental Hygienist with a current anesthesia license who actually remembers where your license card is.
• You speak fluent “perio” and feel at home with comprehensive charting, nonsurgical therapy, and modern tools like EMS Guided Biofilm Therapy (or you’re genuinely excited to learn).
• You believe biofilm is the enemy, not the patient, and you can explain homecare and risk‑factor reduction in a calm, kind, and judgment‑free way.
• You like working in a smaller, privately owned practice where people know your name, your coffee order, and which scaler you always reach for first.
• You’re the kind of teammate who shows up on time, communicates clearly, and helps keep the day flowing smoothly (bonus points if you straighten drawers when no one’s looking).
• You’re comfortable collaborating chairside with the doctor and team to provide evidence‑based care, and you’re open to talking through cases rather than just “doing your own thing.”
• Infection control is your love language: you’re organized, detail‑oriented, and take pride in a spotless operatory and tidy sterilization area.
• You appreciate a predictable schedule, respect for work‑life balance, and a pace that allows you to be thorough without feeling rushed.
• You’re either an experienced RDH (around 3+ years) or a newer grad with strong fundamentals, curiosity, and a willingness to keep learning.
• You can reliably commute to our North Seattle/Green Lake office and are looking for a long‑term dental “home,” whether fulltime or parttime.
