Part-Time Dental Hygienist – University Dental Clinic
We are seeking a part-time Dental Hygienist to join our University Dental Clinic 1–2 days per week.
In this unique academic setting, you'll provide comprehensive periodontal care while mentoring Dental Residents—licensed dentists completing a one-year General Dentistry Residency program. You'll play an important role in helping residents coordinate and deliver periodontal services for clinic patients while providing direct patient treatment.
Our clinical faculty includes specialists from multiple disciplines who are readily available for consultation and collaboration, creating a supportive and team-oriented environment.
Unlike a production-driven private practice, our teaching clinic emphasizes education, quality patient care, and professional development. Because we are a learning institution, appointments are scheduled at a more deliberate pace, allowing ample time for patient care, mentoring, and resident training.
Position Highlights:
- Part-time schedule: 1–2 days per week
- Provide direct periodontal treatment for patients
- Mentor and educate Dental Residents in periodontal care and treatment coordination
- Collaborate with an experienced interdisciplinary faculty
- Enjoy a supportive, non-production-based academic environment
- Focus on high-quality patient care and clinical teaching
This position is ideal for a hygienist who enjoys teaching, mentoring, and practicing in a collaborative environment where education and patient care are equally valued.
