Edinburgh Dental Studio – West End, Edinburgh

At Edinburgh Dental Studio, we are building something different.

We are a long-established independent private practice in Edinburgh’s West End with a strong focus on patient experience, prevention, Cosmetic Dentistry and Adult Orthodontics.

Our philosophy is simple:

“Improving smiles and keeping mouths healthy.”

We are now looking for a caring, motivated and patient-focused Dental Hygienist to join our growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys building long-term patient relationships, working collaboratively within a supportive team and delivering genuinely high-quality preventative care in a calm, premium environment.

We operate a collaborative hygiene-led preventative care model where our hygienists play a key role in the patient journey.

Our hygienists:

• Lead and initiate appointments
• Carry out comprehensive dental health reviews
• Complete periodontal assessments and oral health checks
• Identify concerns and relay findings directly to the dentist
• Work closely alongside clinicians to support ongoing patient care

This creates a more seamless, thorough and patient-centred experience while allowing our hygienists greater involvement and autonomy within the clinical team.

What We Offer

• Established private patient base
• Loyal dental plan membership patients
• Fully supported and well-structured diaries
• Dedicated chairside support
• Friendly, collaborative and experienced team
• Calm, modern and progressive working environment
• Competitive salary / percentage depending on employment type
• Flexible working options for excellent work-life balance
• Holiday entitlement with additional loyalty and training days
• Pension contribution (if employed)
• Ongoing support and development

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who:

• Builds trust and rapport naturally with patients
• Is warm, professional and team-focused
• Takes pride in delivering high-quality preventative care
• Communicates confidently with both patients and clinicians
• Is proactive, organised and forward-thinking
• Embraces digital dentistry and continual development

Essential Requirements

• GDC registered Dental Hygienist
• Up-to-date CPD and vaccinations
• Confident to lead a hygiene lead dental health review

Desirable (but not essential)

• Experience with digital scanners

If you’re looking for a supportive and rewarding role where you can focus on exceptional patient care while being part of a genuinely collaborative team, we’d love to hear from you.
