Dental Hygienist

Dental Hygienist (RDH) — Blue Ridge, GA
4-Day Work Week • No Weekends • Starting at $40/hour + Bonuses • Small Team, Big Heart

Trade the commute for the mountains.
You became a hygienist to take care of people — not to run a 40-minute assembly line and clock out feeling like a number. At Smile Blue Ridge, you'll be part of a community and close-knit team, dedicated to providing exceptional patient care. We're looking for one rockstar hygienist to join our fantastic team!

What we offer
▪ Pay starts at $40 per hour, based on experience and licensure
▪ Monthly bonuses
▪ 4-day work week (32–36 hours) — a real three-day weekend, every week
▪ No weekends. No late nights. Ever.
▪ Paid time off + paid holidays
▪ Health insurance contribution
▪ 401(k) with company match
▪ Free dental care for you, discounted for your family
▪ Uniforms/scrubs provided
▪ A schedule built for thorough care, not a stopwatch

What you'll do
▪ Perform periodontal assessments and accurate charting
▪ Deliver prophy, SRP, and perio maintenance tailored to each patient
▪ Administer local anesthesia and nitrous oxide (if licensed)
▪ Take diagnostic radiographs and intraoral photos
▪ Teach patients the oral-systemic connection in language they'll remember
▪ Co-diagnose alongside our doctors and help patients say yes to the care they need
▪ Keep your operatory, instruments, and records in great shape — OSHA and HIPAA, always
▪ Show up for morning huddle and help the whole day run better

Who thrives here
▪ A licensed RDH who takes real pride in clinical excellence
▪ Someone warm and unhurried at the chair — patients relax around you
▪ A team player who'll grab a suction, restock a room, or cover a gap without being asked
▪ A problem-solver who brings solutions, not blame
▪ Someone who wants to build 10-year relationships with patients, not 30-minute transactions

What you'll need
▪ Active Georgia RDH license in good standing (or license eligibility)
▪ Current CPR/BLS certification
▪ 1+ years of clinical hygiene experience preferred — new grads with the right heart are welcome to apply
▪ Local anesthesia licensure a plus (not required)
▪ Comfort with digital charting and dental software; we'll train you on our systems

About Smile Blue Ridge
We're a growing general, cosmetic, and surgical practice led by Dr. Matthew Lewis, Dr. Kassidy Lewis, and Dr. Skye Robinette — three doctors with deep roots in the North Georgia mountains. We do implants, Invisalign, whitening, sedation, oral cancer screening, and sleep apnea evaluation, all under one roof. Our whole philosophy is simple: everyone deserves to feel confident in their smile and truly cared for from the moment they walk through the door. That includes our team.

Blue Ridge is a mountain town of waterfalls, trout streams, breweries, and a charming downtown that tourists drive two hours to visit on the weekend. You'd live where everyone else vacations!
