Dental Hygienist

Overview

Opportunity Highlights

• Well-established practice supported by a loyal patient base and steady demand for comprehensive care
• Consistent four (4) day per week schedule supporting work‑life balance (Monday-Thursday)

First Coast Dentistry is supported by Star Dental Partners.

We are grounded in a private‑practice mindset, even with the added support of a larger organization behind the scenes. Day‑to‑day dentistry is shaped locally—by the clinical leaders and teams who care for the patients—not by distant decision‑makers or rigid mandates.

What this means for our clinical teams:

• Clinical judgment comes first — Patient-centered outcomes first. 
• Patient relationships matter — We value continuity, trust, and long‑term care over volume. Dentistry here is relationship‑driven, not transaction‑based.
• Support without interference — Administrative and operational support exists to reduce burden, not to control clinical decisions or day‑to‑day practice flow.
• Respectful, stable office environment — Teams are collaborative, experienced, and treated with professionalism. 
• Reasonable expectations and pacing — Schedules are designed to support quality care, not rushed dentistry or burnout.
• Transparency and fairness — Expectations, scheduling, and compensation are communicated clearly and consistently, without moving targets.
• Collaboration is optional, not imposed — Clinical input and mentorship are available when helpful, while independence is respected at every career stage.

Additional infrastructure exists to support the practice operationally and the culture, patient care, and clinical approach remain rooted in traditional private practice values.

• Industry leading compensation with a clear, transparent pay structure
