Dental Hygienist

Our established Smithtown practice features 9 operatories and a modern digital workflow. We provide comprehensive care ranging from preventive and periodontal treatment to restorative, cosmetic, Invisalign, and same-day crown services.

For our hygienists, that means working as an integral part of a comprehensive care team - not simply moving patients through a hygiene schedule.

Your Role as a Dental Hygienist

• Provide comprehensive preventive and periodontal hygiene care
• Perform cleanings, scaling and root planing, fluoride treatments, and other hygiene services within your scope
• Assess periodontal health and communicate clinical findings with patients and providers
• Capture diagnostic-quality digital x-rays and maintain accurate clinical documentation
• Educate patients on oral health, home care, periodontal needs, and recommended treatment
• Collaborate with dentists to identify periodontal, restorative, and comprehensive treatment needs
• Build trusted, long-term relationships that encourage patients to stay engaged in their oral health

What We’re Looking For

• Active New York Dental Hygienist license
• Graduate of an accredited dental hygiene program
• Current CPR certification
• Patient-focused approach with strong communication skills
• Collaborative, dependable, and committed to high-quality clinical care
• 1+ year of hygiene experience preferred, but new graduates are encouraged to apply
• Local anesthesia certification is a plus

Find a Practice Where You Can Stay and Grow

The right hygiene position should give you more than a schedule of patients. It should give you a team you enjoy working with, patients you can build relationships with, opportunities to continue developing clinically, and recognition for the important role you play in the practice.

That's what we're building at NowDental of Suffolk.

If you're looking for a practice where you can provide excellent care while building a rewarding, long-term hygiene career, apply today and come meet our team in Smithtown.
