Dental Hygenist

Position Description Full-time | Lakeville, MN | $65–$70/hour + monthly team bonuses | Privately owned, non-corporate dental practice You didn't go through hygiene school to be a production widget. You're a clinical professional. You know periodontal care inside and out. You can read a mouth and see what's actually going on. You take pride in your work, and you know what it feels like when a patient leaves your chair genuinely better off than when they sat down. But somewhere along the way, the offices you've worked in stopped letting you actually do the job. Booked so tight you're skipping the parts that matter. Treated like a cleaning-per-hour quota instead of a clinician. No say in the treatment plan. Outdated equipment. A corporate machine measuring you on production while patients feel rushed and unheard. And the CE budget? Forget it. You know there has to be something better — a place with the technology to actually do good work, time in the schedule to actually care for patients, a doctor who wants your clinical input, and a team that has your back. That's what we're building at Lakeville Modern Dentistry. And we're looking for one more A-player to join us. Why Lakeville Modern Dentistry? We're Not a DSO. We're Not a Corporate Hygiene Mill. We're a Privately Owned Practice Built Around Five Values That Show Up In Everything We Do: Thorough is Our Standard — We sweat the small stuff. From planning to execution, we get it right the first time because details matter.Can-Do Attitude — We show up with energy, positivity, and solutions. No task is beneath us when the goal is excellent care.Self-Employed Mentality — We take ownership like our name is on the door. We care, we notice, we follow through.Overdeliver Every Time — Patients leave feeling cared for, heard, and surprised by how much we gave.See the Good — Positive by choice. No grumblings. No gossip. Our core focus is simple: The best care. The best outcomes. The best experience. Every time. Because we focus on comprehensive dentistry — smile makeovers, full-mouth rehabilitation, implants, All-on-X — you'll be supporting some of the most rewarding cases in the field. Not just back-to-back recall cleanings.
