Growing into more. Local anesthesia and laser certified. We're building out a hygiene schedule, and we're looking for the person who's going to own it. We have an amazing superstar hygienist already and we're growing so fast we're looking to find her an equally amazing partner in crime. This starts as two days — Wednesdays and Fridays. That's honest, and it's the whole point: we'd rather bring on the right hygienist and grow the days around them than half-fill four days. As the schedule builds, this becomes Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. If you're looking for part-time that stays part-time, that works here too. If you're looking for part-time that turns into full-time, that works here too. Let's talk about which one you are. What "Love Dental" Actually Means "Love" isn't decoration on the sign out front. It's the standard we hold ourselves to every single day: Love our patients — we have empathy for every person in our chair, and we do everything in our control to make their visit something they'd actually recommend to a friend. Love our coworkers — we look out for each other, jump in before we're asked, and communicate with compassion. No negative talk, no leaving teammates hanging. Love our work — we do things the right way for the right reasons, and we're never "stuck" doing it a certain way just because it's comfortable. Better way? We find it. We're a small privately owned office — we can do whatever we want whenever we want, as long as it's the right way. No waiting on corporate approvals. Love ourselves enough to bring our best version to work — positive attitude, YES WE CAN energy, personal stress left at the door. Love our growth — we improve 1% every day. We read, we learn, we apply, and we don't repeat the same mistakes. We look forward, not backward. Love our adaptability — new systems, new challenges, tasks outside the job description? We adapt and figure it out instead of throwing our hands up. If you read that and thought "that's how I already work" — we should talk. What You'll Own You're a licensed hygienist. You know the clinical responsibilities, we know the clinical responsibilities, and we're not going to waste your time listing them. Here's what actually matters to us: The patient's experience of their own mouth. Not a recited spiel — an actual conversation that leaves someone understanding what's happening in there and what to do about it. Patients who understand their perio status show up for their perio maintenance. Your hygiene schedule. Pre-appointing, recall, the patients who drift. You're not doing that alone — the front desk is working it hard — but the hygienist who cares about their own column is the reason a hygiene schedule holds. Comfortable appointments. You're local anesthesia certified and we expect you to use it. Nobody should white-knuckle a quad of SRP in our office. Co-diagnosis with the doctor. You see these patients more than the doctor does. What you notice and how you hand it off changes whether someone gets treated this year or in five years. The culture. Be a thermostat, not a thermometer. What You Bring Required — not "preferred": Valid Arizona dental hygiene license, from an accredited program Local anesthesia certification — required Laser certification — required We're specific about those two because we actually use them. They're part of how we deliver care here, not a line on a wish list.

Also:

A genuine, warm chairside manner — patients feel it Real communication skills, with patients and with teammates A growth mindset. "I don't know that yet, but I want to learn" is one of our favorite sentences around here Attention to detail and the organization to run on time without rushing anybody

Wednesdays and Fridays to start, 7:30 AM-5:00 PM (we start together with a morning huddle so everyone walks into the day knowing the plan. Sometimes leaving at 5:30 can be expected).
