Registered Dental Hygienist

Dental Hygienist — 4-Day Week, 4 Weeks PTO & Advanced Clinical Practice

Casco Bay Smiles | Falmouth, Maine | Tuesday–Friday

If you're an experienced hygienist who wants the time, technology, support, and clinical freedom to do excellent work, we'd love to meet you.

Casco Bay Smiles is an independent, fee-for-service practice in Falmouth. We're growing, expanding and we're looking for an experienced hygienist who wants to grow with us.

Our practice is led by a Kois-trained dentist committed to clinical excellence and evidence-based dentistry. You'll work alongside a stable, experienced hygiene team in a supportive environment where thorough patient care matters more than rushing through a schedule.

What makes our hygiene department different

• 60-minute recare appointments and 90-minute new-patient appointments—with enough time to provide genuinely comprehensive care.
• Longer appointments for SRP and complex cases.
• Advanced periodontal protocols, including diode laser therapy and saliva testing to help guide periodontal care.
• Guided Biofilm Therapy with air-powder polishing, providing an efficient, patient-friendly approach while reducing the physical demands of traditional instrumentation.
• Full digital workflow, including Planmeca CBCT, Medit scanners, and intraoral photography.
• Clear clinical protocols and regular calibration, so you know exactly what excellent care looks like and have a team supporting you.
• Opportunities to expand your skills, take on advanced cases, and grow into a clinical leadership role.

Most importantly, you won't be expected to choose between quality care and the clock.

Who we're looking for

We're looking for an RDH who:

• Takes pride in doing thorough, evidence-based work
• Builds genuine trust and relationships with patients
• Wants to keep learning and developing clinically
• Communicates well and works collaboratively
