Specialty Periodontal Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH)

Take Your Passion for Periodontal Care to the Next Level

Do you love providing periodontal care in a general practice setting and are ready to elevate your career?

If you're passionate about helping patients preserve their oral health through periodontal therapy, education, and disease management, this is an opportunity to join a team where periodontal care is the primary focus and where your expertise can make a lasting impact.

We are seeking a Specialty Periodontal Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) to join our team of highly skilled Periodontists dedicated to providing advanced surgical and non-surgical periodontal treatment. Our specialists receive referrals from dental providers throughout the state, allowing us to serve patients with a wide range of periodontal needs and complex treatment plans.

Why Choose Specialty Periodontics?

At our practice, you'll be part of a team focused on preserving the foundation of oral health. As a Specialty Perio RDH, you won't simply maintain smiles. You'll play a critical role in helping patients manage periodontal disease, maintain their natural dentition, protect systemic health, and improve their overall quality of life.

Working alongside experienced Periodontists gives you direct access to advanced treatment planning, clinical collaboration, and continuous learning opportunities that are difficult to find in a traditional practice setting.

What You'll Do

• Provide comprehensive periodontal assessments
• Deliver Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) therapy with quadrant-based care
• Perform periodontal maintenance therapy
• Monitor disease progression and treatment outcomes
• Educate patients on oral-systemic health connections
• Collaborate directly with Periodontists on treatment planning and case management
• Support surgical cases through ongoing maintenance and patient education
• Utilize laser therapy as part of periodontal treatment protocols (for certified providers)
• Build long-term relationships with patients committed to improving their periodontal health

Why You'll Love This Role

• Work side-by-side with board-certified and experienced Periodontists
• Focus on advanced periodontal therapy and long-term disease management
• Treat patients referred from across the state
• Expand your clinical knowledge beyond traditional hygiene care
• Gain experience with complex periodontal and surgical cases
• Opportunities to utilize advanced technologies and treatment modalities
• Collaborate with a team that values clinical excellence and patient outcomes
• Continuous education and professional development opportunities

The Learning Never Ends

Our commitment to clinical excellence means investing in our team. Whether you're already skilled in advanced periodontal therapy or looking to grow your expertise, you'll have access to ongoing education, mentorship, and exposure to cutting-edge periodontal procedures and technologies.

This is more than a hygiene position. It's an opportunity to become a true periodontal health specialist and a vital part of improving patients' confidence, health, and quality of life.

Who We're Looking For

• Licensed Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH)
• Passionate about periodontal therapy and patient education
• Experience with periodontal maintenance and SRP preferred
• Laser certification is a plus
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Commitment to delivering outstanding patient care
• Desire for continuous growth and clinical excellence

Build a Career, Not Just a Schedule

If you're ready to move beyond routine hygiene appointments and join a specialty practice where your expertise is valued, your learning never stops, and your impact on patient health is significant, we'd love to meet you.

Join our Periodontal Specialty Team and help patients preserve the foundation of their oral health for a lifetime.
