Dental hygienists
Full and part time across all four practices. Your column, your recall list, and a coordinator who protects both.
All practices
Careers
Be who you wantto be.
Four practices in British Columbia, each hiring for its own team, in its own building, under its own name. What the group adds is the part that usually does not exist in a single-owner office, including somewhere to go next.
Who we hire
Clinical and front of house.
Certified dental assistants
Chairside across general, implant and orthodontic work depending on the building. Cross-training is encouraged and paid for.
All practices
Treatment coordinators
The person who sits with a patient and the plan, explains the fee and the insurance estimate, and books the work. Often the role people move into.
Kelowna, West Kelowna
Administration and front desk
Scheduling, insurance, recall and the phone. The job the whole day runs through, and it is staffed and paid like it.
All practices
Practice managers
Running a building day to day, with a regional manager above you rather than a dentist between patients.
By practice
Associate dentists
General practice, with implant and full-arch exposure available. Details for dentists.

What the group provides
The part a single-owner
office cannot build.
- Tayllor Kluyt, regional manager across the BC practices, so an operational problem has an owner who is not the dentist between patients.
- One scheduling, messaging and time-off system across every site, rather than a binder and a group text.
- A manager address per office that survives the manager changing, so an escalation does not vanish into somebody's personal inbox.
- Written role expectations and a coaching cadence, so feedback arrives as a conversation on a schedule rather than as a surprise.
- Moving between practices in the group does not mean starting over as a new employee.
- Cross-training paid for. At Kelowna Dental Centre that includes orthodontic and denture work without leaving the building.
- The group grows by growing its own teams, not by hiring over them. When a practice needs a treatment coordinator or a manager, the first place we look is the people already in the building.
What it is like
Small teams,
real buildings.
You will be known by name, including by the owner, who is a general dentist and is usually in a practice rather than an office.
When a day goes wrong we look at the process first. That is a stated value and it is the one the team is most entitled to hold us to, because the alternative is looking for a person to blame for a system that was already broken.
If you want to move, front desk into treatment coordination or assisting into a wider clinical role, say so at a review rather than on your way out. That is a conversation we would rather have early.
The schedule is a promise to the team, not only to the patient.
Time off is planned and covered rather than negotiated in a group chat at seven in the morning. Coverage across four practices is the practical reason that is possible.
The people
The team you would
actually be joining.
Hygiene
A column that is yours,
and a list that is worked.
Hygiene is treated as a department, not as the gap between a dentist's appointments. Recall is worked by people whose job that is, so your day is booked before you arrive rather than repaired at ten in the morning.
Continuing education is paid and scheduled inside working hours. Instruments, ultrasonics and loupes are the practice's problem, not a deduction from your pay.
If the schedule is empty, that is a management failure. It should never be treated as yours.
The 3D Studio
The group runs
its own lab.
Full-arch prosthetics, implant and conventional crowns, night guards and dentures, designed and finished in house by a named team rather than shipped to a building nobody has visited.
It is a career path most practices cannot offer: digital design, milling and finishing, and the chance to learn full-arch work from people producing it every week. The lab also takes cases from practices the group does not own, so the work is not limited to what four clinics generate.
Technicians, finishers and lab coordination — all of it in Kelowna, not offshore.
How hiring runs
Four steps, and you hear back
either way.
1
You write to us
An email saying what you do and where you would like to work. A CV helps and a covering letter is not required.
2
A call with the practice
With the manager of the building you would actually work in, not with a recruiter and not with head office.
3
A working day
Paid. You see the team, the schedule and the operatories on a normal day, and they see you. Both sides learn more from this than from any interview.
4
An offer in writing
Rate, hours, benefits and the review cadence, all written down before you decide. Nothing important gets agreed verbally.
Write to us
Nothing posted right now?
Write anyway.
Open roles are posted by the practice that is hiring. Teams change and someone tells us before the posting exists, so a note that arrives before a vacancy is often the one that gets the call.
