Santa Maria, CaliforniaFull-time
$60 - $72 hourly
About the Job
Why CPDI:
Join a specialty practice where your role extends beyond routine care. We provide a collaborative, technology-driven environment with an established patient base and a focus on long-term periodontal health and outcomes.

What We Offer:
  • Competitive Pay: $60–$72/hr (based on experience). 
  • Consistent, established patient flow from day one.
  • Potential signing bonus based on availability. 
  • Flexible scheduling across locations. 

Benefits:
  • Health & Vision insurance. 
  • 401(k) with matching/profit sharing. 
  • Paid Time Off. 
  • Continuing Education support. 
  • Potential signing bonus and relocation assistance. 

The Role:
This is not a traditional hygiene position. You will function as a key part of the clinical team, working closely with our doctors to support patients with periodontal and peri-implant conditions.
Ideal for a hygienist who enjoys connecting clinical findings to patient understanding and long-term care decisions.

Clinical Focus:
  • Periodontal and peri-implant maintenance. 
  • Scaling and root planing. 
  • Guided biofilm therapy and disease management. 
  • Collaboration with doctors on treatment planning and long-term outcomes. 

Expanded Opportunity:
For candidates interested in a broader role, there is an opportunity to:
  • Reinforce doctor diagnoses and recommendations. 
  • Help patients understand their condition and next steps. 
  • Support continuity from diagnosis through treatment. 

This aspect of the role focuses on patient clarity, trust, and overall experience—not sales.

Clinical Environment & Technology:
We invest in tools that support precision, patient comfort, and better outcomes, including:
  • Airflow therapy for biofilm management. 
  • Periodontal endoscopy (perioscopy). 
  • Laser-assisted periodontal therapy. 
  • Intraoral scanning and digital workflows.

Hygienists are encouraged to integrate these tools into both clinical care and patient communication.

Support & Workflow:
  • Dedicated hygiene assistants for charting and operatory support. 
  • Efficient, team-based systems. 
  • Strong referral-based patient flow. 

Who We’re Looking For:
  • Licensed RDH in California. 
  • Strong communicator who builds trust and simplifies complex care. 
  • Clinically confident with an interest in periodontics. 
  • Team-oriented and looking for a long-term professional home. 
  • Interested in growing beyond traditional hygiene responsibilities. 

Ready to Join Us?:
We have immediate availability across all locations and are open to both part-time and full-time candidates.
