Job description:
Fountain Inn Dental is a privately owned general practice in Fountain Inn, SC, looking for a part-time Registered Dental Hygienist for 1–3 days per week — your pick of Tuesday through Thursday, half or full days. We're happy to build the schedule around your life.
We're not a DSO — we're a five-operatory, doctor-owned office with a team of eight, founded in 2017. Here's what your day actually looks like: recall appointments are booked at [60] minutes and you'll run your own column — no assisted hygiene, no double-booking. Perio here is diagnosed off the probe readings and the radiographs — and we use Pearl AI to keep our radiographic findings consistent and objective, so when you call perio, the evidence backs you up chairside and all providers are calibrated to the same standard. The AI never decides treatment — you and the doctors do.
What we offer:
- $45–$55 per hour
- No Mondays or Fridays — ever. No evenings, no weekends. Flexible Tuesday–Thursday scheduling, full or half days
- A hygiene department that's actually equipped for the job: new, properly maintained instrumentation, plus KaVo ProphyFlex air polishing and SonicFlex sonic instrumentation if you prefer a biofilm-guided (GBT-style) workflow
- A prevention-first clinical philosophy — we offer enamel remineralization with Curodont, so early lesions get treated conservatively instead of watched until they need a drill
- Chairside tools that make your case for you: Carestream CS 1500 HD intraoral cameras in every operatory, digital radiography with Pearl AI second-opinion, a 3Shape TRIOS scanner, and Dentrix
- Real support for newer hygienists: a gradual ramp-up on scheduling, doctors who answer questions without making you feel small, and a colleague one op over who's seen everything
- A supportive two-doctor team (Dr. Vikas Jain and Dr. Caitlyn Johnson) and a friendly, close-knit staff
- A patient base we're genuinely grateful for. This practice was a scratch-start in 2017, and many of the families who took a chance on us in those first years are still in our chairs — now with kids, parents, and grandparents on the schedule. Our patients come from every background and age group, and you'll see the same faces recall after recall. If you want to be someone's hygienist — not just a hygienist — this is that kind of office.
Requirements:
- Active South Carolina Dental Hygienist license (RDH)
- Current CPR/BLS certification
- New graduates welcome — you'll work alongside our seasoned permanent hygienist, who is a wonderful mentor
- Spanish is a plus, not a requirement
Pay: $45.00 - $55.00 per hour
Benefits:
- 401(k)
- Employee discount
- Flexible schedule
- Professional development assistance
Work Location: In person
