Our office in Toronto requires an RDH for a steady Thursday. Other days may be available as well. It is an established general practice with 5 operatories, and is focused on preventive dentistry. Experience is preferred, but we will be glad to review all, and any, applications. Our office is near Yonge and Bloor, so if you are taking the subway it will be convenient to get to from either line. I look forward to talking with you!
