Manage and maintain the dental hygiene recare system.
Contact patients who are due or overdue for cleanings, periodontal maintenance, and continuing care.
Keep the hygiene schedule full and productive by filling openings and cancellations.
Work unscheduled and overdue patient lists daily.
Schedule patients before they leave the office for their next hygiene visit.
Confirm appointments and follow up with patients who cancel or no-show.
Maintain and work a short-call/cancellation list.
Educate patients on the importance of maintaining their recommended hygiene schedule.

What We’re Looking For
Dental office experience is preferred. The ideal candidate is comfortable making outbound calls, has strong communication and customer-service skills, is organized and persistent with follow-up, and understands that successful recare is more than confirming appointments—it is building relationships and keeping patients committed to their oral health.

Experience with Dentrix is a plus.
