Dental Hygienist (RDH)
About The Position
At Aspen Dental, dental hygienists are empowered clinicians and trusted oral health providers who partner with doctors while having the autonomy to assess oral health, recommend care based on clinical indicators, and educate patients. The role is available to new graduates and experienced hygienists in a modern clinical environment supported by advanced technology, structured onboarding, and hands-on training. Independently owned practices provide local cultures alongside the resources and support of a national network. Schedules are designed for full-time, part-time, or PRN work, with approximately 5–7 patients per day to allow for thorough assessments, patient education, and meaningful care. New hires receive two weeks of structured onboarding and training, and can access mentorship and clinical support from the Hygiene Support Team. Digital tools streamline charting and support clinical decision-making. Ongoing learning and career growth are available through TAG University. Compensation is $35 per hour, plus an uncapped incentive plan that rewards 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; 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 location, and terms and conditions apply. Aspen Dental-branded practices are independently owned and operated by licensed dentists and receive non-clinical business support from Aspen Dental Management, Inc.
