Job Description
Hey there,
I’m currently working with a great client who is looking to bring on a Locum Dental Hygienist for a 6-month contract to cover a maternity leave. It’s a solid opportunity with a steady patient flow and supportive team.
Assignment Highlights:
• 6-month contract (maternity leave coverage)
• 13–14 patients per day
• Well-established clinic and organized schedule
Clinical Responsibilities Include:
• Periodontal charting
• Oral prophylaxis
• Scaling and root planing
• Intra- and extraoral soft tissue examinations
• Application of topical, therapeutic, and subgingival agents for caries and periodontal disease (including fluoride)
• Placement of pit and fissure sealants
• Subgingival irrigation with antimicrobial/antibiotic solutions
• Polishing and contouring restorations
• Oral exfoliative cytology
• Periodontal soft tissue curettage
• Administration of local anesthesia
• Placement of antimicrobial or antibiotic medications not requiring removal
This is a great opportunity to step into a consistent role while supporting a clinic during maternity coverage.
If this might be something you’d be open to, I’d be happy to share more details with you!
Best,
Bridget Noonan
