We offer a competitive hourly rate plus a monthly performance bonus tied to your production and clinical excellence. Our top-earning Hygienists make up to $85/hour in VA, combining base pay and bonus potential — with clear goals, transparency, and the support to help you thrive.
As a Dental Hygienist at Tend, you'll deliver top-tier preventive care in a modern, thoughtfully designed studio — with the support of a dedicated dental assistant through our Team (Assisted) Hygiene model.

At Tend, we're committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive environment where both our patients and our teams feel respected, represented, and truly cared for.
