If you are a licensed dental hygienist (formerly registered, or RDH) who wants flexible work, temping lets you choose when and where you work. ASAP Dental Temps places temporary dental hygienists in dental offices across BC, from a single shift to a planned leave, and signing up is free.

What temping as a hygienist looks like

Offices need coverage for sick days, vacations, maternity leaves and busy periods. We text you the shifts that match your areas and availability. You reply to take a shift, or pick it up in our app. You work the shift and are paid directly by the office.

You set your own rate, and we tell you honestly if it is above what offices are currently willing to pay. We handle the rate conversation, so you never have to negotiate with the office yourself.

Where you can work

Hygienists temp for us in Vancouver and across Metro Vancouver, in Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford and Chilliwack, on Vancouver Island in Victoria and Nanaimo, and in Kelowna, Vernon and Kamloops, as well as in many smaller communities. When you apply, tell us which cities you want to work in.

What offices usually ask for

Offices look for a licensed dental hygienist and often ask about the practice software you have used. Tell us your experience and the programs you know when you apply, so we can match you to offices that fit.
