High-level hygiene. Real autonomy. A team that makes work enjoyable again.
If you’re a Dental Hygienist who wants to practice thoughtful, comprehensive care without being rushed/ micromanaged, or emotionally drained; then you’ll feel at home at Dentistry on the Ponds.
We’re a privately owned, modern dental practice where hygienists are true clinical partners, not production machines. You’ll work directly with Dr. Mehta in a co-diagnosis model, use advanced technology to deliver better care with less physical strain, and be part of a culture that genuinely makes the workday more enjoyable.
Our Culture (This Is What Actually Reduces Burnout)
We’ve built a supportive, drama-free environment where people respect each other’s time, roles, and personal lives. Communication is clear, expectations are realistic, and the workflow is organized. Our stress stays low and the focus stays on patient care.
We understand that life happens. When you need time off, whether for family, health, or personal commitments; we don’t create guilt or unnecessary friction. We’re accommodating and proactive with scheduling because supporting our team outside the office is what allows everyone to show up fully when they’re here.
You’ll be surrounded by coworkers who help each other, leadership that listens and adjusts when something isn’t working, and a team culture where it’s normal to enjoy the people you work with and not dread coming in.
A Practice You’ll Be Proud to Work For
Dentistry on the Ponds has built a stellar reputation in the community, reflected in our consistently strong Google reviews and long-standing patient relationships. We’re known for being ethical, professional, and genuinely caring. People recognize us both in how we treat patients and how we treat our team.
Our hygienists don’t have to “sell” dentistry. Patients trust our recommendations, value preventive care, and partner with us in their oral health. That trust makes the workday smoother, more rewarding, and far less stressful.
