Join a practice where hygiene is valued—not rushed.
At West Lakes Dentistry, we believe dental hygiene is one of the most important parts of comprehensive patient care. We're looking for a Registered Dental Hygienist who is passionate about helping patients achieve lifelong oral health through prevention, periodontal therapy, education, and exceptional relationships.
If you're looking for an office where you'll be supported, respected, challenged to grow, and surrounded by an outstanding team, we'd love to meet you.
Why West Lakes Dentistry?
We aren't a "prophy mill." Our hygiene department practices a comprehensive, evidence-based standard of care centered around accurate diagnosis, patient education, and long-term periodontal health.
Our hygienists are empowered to:
Practice at the top of their license.
Perform comprehensive periodontal assessments.
Diagnose and treat periodontal disease using current evidence-based protocols.
Build meaningful, long-term relationships with patients.
Work collaboratively with doctors who value and support hygiene.
A Team That Invests in You
We believe great patient care starts with a great team culture.
You'll join a collaborative environment where:
Doctors and hygienists work together as partners.
Team members genuinely support one another.
Leadership listens and invests in your success.
Growth, learning, and continuous improvement are encouraged every day.
We value curiosity, accountability, kindness, and a desire to continually improve.
Learn Alongside a Periodontist
One of the unique advantages of our practice is having an experienced periodontist on our team, through our partner practice Foundations Periodontics.
You'll have opportunities for:
Consultations on complex cases.
Mentorship in periodontal diagnosis and treatment.
Ongoing clinical education.
Collaboration that helps you become the best clinician you can be.
Whether you're an experienced hygienist or early in your career, you'll continue to grow here.
Technology That Supports Great Care
We invest in technology that helps you provide exceptional patient care, including:
Digital radiography
CBCT imaging
Intraoral scanning
Overjet AI-assisted radiographic analysis and dictation
Modern periodontal protocols and documentation systems
Our goal is simple: give our clinicians the tools they need to do their best work.

Is passionate about patient education.
Believes prevention and periodontal health change lives.
Communicates with confidence and compassion.
Enjoys working as part of a positive team.
Takes pride in providing comprehensive, high-quality care.
Wants to continue learning and growing professionally.
