Dental Hygienist (RDH)
About The Position
At Aspen Dental, dental hygienists are empowered clinicians and trusted oral health providers. The Dental Hygienist is a valued clinical partner to the doctor, with autonomy to assess oral health, recommend care based on clinical indicators, and educate patients without being rushed. The role is offered to new graduates and experienced hygienists in a modern clinical environment supported by advanced technology, structured onboarding, and hands-on training. Independently owned practices foster local cultures while benefiting from the stability, resources, and innovation of a national network. Schedules are designed for full-time, part-time, or PRN work, with 5–7 patients per day to allow time for thorough assessments, patient education, and meaningful care. The position includes two-week onboarding and training, digital tools for charting and clinical decision-making, mentorship and clinical support from the Hygiene Support Team, and access to ongoing learning through TAG University. Compensation is $48–$52 per hour, plus an uncapped incentive plan rewarding patient-centered care. Benefits for full-time and part-time hygienists include medical, dental, and vision insurance; a 401(k) with company match; paid time off and six paid holidays (which may vary for part-time employees); free continuing education through TAG University; disability coverage; an Employee Assistance Program; and pet insurance. Benefits and incentives may vary by independently owned and operated Aspen Dental location, and terms and conditions apply.
