Dental Hygienist (RDH) – Starting $63-64/hr  + Monthly Bonus (Up to ~$140,000/year)| No Weekends and Wednesday OFF | Old Greenwich, CT | Full-Time

Now Hiring: Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH)

Old Greenwich Dental Center is a well-established, patient-centered practice in the heart of Old Greenwich, CT, and we're proud of something most offices can't say: our team has been together for years. Low turnover, long tenures, and a staff that genuinely enjoys working together isn't something we stumbled into; it's something we've built intentionally.

We're looking for a skilled, organized, and personable RDH to join a team that will have your back every single day.

If you're a motivated, patient-focused Dental Hygienist looking for a stable long-term home, strong compensation, and real work-life balance, this is the opportunity for you.

Our office is part of Underbite Dental Management, a unique, people-first dental support organization that owns, operates, and provides services to practices across the region.
