Dental Hygienist (RDH)
About The Position
At Aspen Dental, dental hygienists are empowered clinicians and trusted oral health providers. The hygienist partners with the doctor while having autonomy to assess oral health, recommend care based on clinical indicators, and educate patients without being rushed. New graduates and experienced hygienists work in a modern clinical environment with advanced technology, structured onboarding, and hands-on training. Independently owned practices have local cultures and are supported by the stability, resources, and innovation of a national network. The role offers full-time, part-time, or PRN opportunities and manageable schedules of 5–7 patients per day, allowing time for thorough assessments, patient education, and meaningful care. New hires receive two weeks of structured onboarding and training. Digital tools streamline charting and support clinical decision-making, and the Hygiene Support Team provides mentorship and clinical support. Hygienists can gain experience with voice-activated perio charting, TRIOS® 3D scanning, and Videa AI, and access in-person and virtual programs and continuing education through TAG University. Compensation is $42 per hour, plus an uncapped incentive plan that rewards patient-centered care. Benefits are available to full-time and part-time hygienists and may vary by location and employment status. Aspen Dental-branded practices are independently owned and operated by licensed dentists and receive non-clinical business support from Aspen Dental Management, Inc. The organization and supported practices are equal opportunity employers.
