Description

Seeking a Licensed Dental Hygienist with a minimum of 1 year experience and a sincere interest in caring for people. All required vaccines should be up to date and in writing. An active license is required. Skills in patient education, product education, and gentle hand skills are a must in all levels of prophylaxis and periodontal therapies. Patients are treated from age 5 years and up with Hygiene. Our Hygienists need the ability to measure periodontal charts independently or with assistance. Our Hygienists are upbeat with outgoing personalities and who enjoy a fast paced work environment and team oriented workflow. In our office, customer service is key to our success. We utilize specific service skills to create a positive work environment. We introduce many new patients to our practice, starting with the Dental Hygienist gathering diagnostic information like xrays, photos, periodontal charting, medical history, and medications list and any other pertinent information and to include the first appropriate dental cleaning. The Dentist performs the exam separately. Communication between the Hygienist, Dental Assistants, dental team, Dentist, and patient is imperative and unique to our practice. Identifying and obtaining additional information for the Dentist in regards to treatment planning is imperative. Training will be provided on effective 2 on 1 transfer between team members. Scheduling recare appointments, treatment, and understanding dental insurance breakdowns is required. Our Hygienists review and prepare the appropriate procedures for their daily schedule. Cross training is key in our busy private Dental practice, so we help one another with daily tasks, sterilization, stocking, and other office tasks during potential down time. Experience with Dentrix is highly encouraged. We would like a team member who finds value in the dentistry we provide at Cibolo Dental and seeks a long-term dental home for their career.
