About Our Practice:

Our goal is to make every patient feel like they are the only person in the office.

Our hygiene program is robust, individualized, and relationship-driven. Hygienists typically see only 6–7 patients per day, with 60–90-minute recare appointments based on each patient’s clinical needs. Our long-term patients genuinely value their hygiene visits—and they’re a little obsessed with our EMS Airflow equipment and the team members who take the time to get to know them.

Our modern office was built in 2022 and is located in John’s Landing in South Portland. It is filled with natural light, thoughtful details, happy plants, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together. We have a private parking lot, nearby walking paths, coffee shops, restaurants, and food trucks.

What We’re Looking For:

• Current Oregon dental hygiene license
• Patient-centered and education-focused approach
• Strong clinical skills and attention to detail
• Genuine interest in periodontal health and continuing education
• Kind, dependable, and respectful team member
• Someone who values quality care over a rushed schedule
• EMS Airflow, DEXIS, and Dentrix experience is appreciated but not required—we’re happy to train the right person
• New graduates are welcome to apply!

If you’re passionate about hygiene, enjoy building lasting patient relationships, and want to work in an office that takes both excellent patient care and a healthy work environment seriously, we would love to meet you!

We’re planning to schedule working interviews throughout the fall and hope to hire the right fit in late 2026 or early 2027.

Apply through Indeed with your resume. We look forward to learning more about you!
