This is a superb opportunity for a dental hygienist to join this high-specification practice, established by a caring principal providing dentistry and a patient experience of the highest quality. Owing to its excellent local reputation, the clinic is extremely busy with plans for expansion and additional treatment rooms.

The principal will support and assist you with diagnosis and treatment planning with regular debriefs to ensure that you are happy and you have everything that you need. You will have access to intraoral cameras and scanners, air polishers for prophy and perio and top-of-the-line scalars, handpieces and hand instruments. New patient checks and cleans are 60 minutes, recalls are 45 minutes with another 60 minutes every 2 years. The books are currently full five months in advance and thus a hygienist with good skills can earn well over A$100k, if working on a commission basis. The clinic does a huge amount of in-house periodontics due to it being regional.

There will be no shortage of support and with this in mind, we will consider every applicant on their merits, those both experienced and those younger in their careers; however, expect a base retainer of at least A$80k.

The principal had moved from Brisbane to Rockhampton due to the opportunity to provide a higher standard of care to patients and the much higher earning potential, in addition to the quality of life enjoyed in the area; this is a dream location and professional opportunity.

Although Rockhampton is not strictly coastal, it is very close and within a 20-minute drive allowing you the opportunity to live in a beachfront property with the sea just 20 metres away.

If you are a dental hygienist who is a keen patient relationship builder, seeking a high-specification and professional practice environment with dedicated colleagues and lovely loyal patients, then please get in touch.

Candidates will be AHPRA registered or qualified from Australia, UK, Ireland, or New Zealand or have undertaken the ADC examination to ensure automatic AHPRA registration.
