Dental Intern
Registered Dental Hygienist
Applications for the 2025-2026 internship is currently open!
Our practice provides promising pre-dental students with the opportunity to gain experience in the lab, assist with procedures, manage the sterilization process, and learn the business side of dentistry. Here is what a previous intern has to say about his experience:
"The internship has given me a much better understanding of the field and really helped me in my interviews. You will get hands-on experience in the lab and by assisting the doctor. You will also be exposed to many of the unique challenges of a private practice and will know what to expect upon graduation from dental school."
The internship program begins in June and lasts for one year. The position requires a full-time commitment Monday through Thursday. We look for someone who is seriously interested in dental school as expressed by either having already completed the Dental Admission Test or by having it scheduled in the coming months.

Our modern, innovative practice is looking for an experienced registered dental hygienist who will play an integral role in patient care and treatment. The ideal candidate will partner with the dentist to provide critical information and treatment plan.
As a well-established practice, we are looking for someone who will build relationships with the patients through professional, friendly service and serve as a coach for patients to understand the factors that affect both their oral and total health.
We are eager to hire an individual who is already certified in myofunctional therapy or would be interested in learning more about this topic. Other topics may include salivary testing for various viruses or identifying factors that induce acute inflammation.
Proven success and confidence in one's hygiene abilities is important as the candidate must be able to work independently.
We welcome your resume and look forward to discussing the opportunity we have to offer.
*Part Time Position: Monday-Wednesday 7:30 am - 5 pm*
