Registered Dental Hygienist at Cambridge Smiles

Registered Dental Hygienist - Part Time - Tuesdays and Fridays

We’re hiring a dental hygienist who can help us provide incredible dental care to each of our patients!

Cambridge Smiles is a small, private office that focuses on high-quality patient care.

If someone asks what makes our office a good place to work, I would say it is the fact that our team gets along well and works well together. This is not a corporate office, it isn't a factory, it's a place where we put patient care ahead of the bottom line.

You’ll conduct preliminary dental exams, help dentists with examinations and procedures, and perform thorough dental cleanings so patients walk out with a smile. This role is perfect for someone who loves to care for people and is highly attuned to detail. If you have a passion for educating people about the importance of dental health and are looking to grow your career in dental hygiene, we need to talk.

Available days are Tuesday and Friday, 8 am to 5 pm

The office has plenty of free parking and is close to the Alewife T Station.

We are a general dentistry office, treating patients ages 8 and up. Our goal at Cambridge Smiles is to provide top-quality care to our patients. Doesn't everyone say that? What makes us different?

We have worked to grow a team that actually enjoys working together. That doesn't mean the work can't be challenging, but it is much more bearable with a good group of people by your side.

We are a privately owned office, so we are able to have more control over how the office is run and the quality of care we provide to our patients.
