Locum dental hygienist.
Amsterdam · 1–3 days
€ 50–€ 70 per hour
An Amsterdam practice is looking for a self-employed dental hygienist for regular locum work, one to three days a week. Not an occasional stand-in job: the practice wants someone to work fixed days over a longer period.
What you’ll be doing
You run your own clinic in a well-equipped room: screening, scaling, periodontal aftercare and prevention advice. You keep your own records and set your own treatment times within the agreed schedule.
The schedules are prepared for you and they are full — you don’t start a day with gaps in it. For referrals and consultation you have short lines to the dentists, but clinically you are in charge of your own clinic.
Because you come on the same days regularly, you see your own aftercare patients again and can finish a course of treatment rather than handing it over. That is exactly why the practice would rather have one regular locum than a rotating cast.
Who this suits
This suits a self-employed professional who wants stability in the rhythm but not in the employment: fixed days, the same practice, the same patients coming back for their aftercare. If you want variety across several practices or occasional stand-in days, this is the wrong place.
What the practice offers
- Hourly rate between € 50 and € 70, excluding VAT, depending on experience
- One to three days a week, on a regular basis — this is not a one-off cover job
- Your own well-equipped treatment room
- Full, well-prepared schedules and assistance for turnaround
- Short lines to the dentists for consultation and referrals
Education and experience
A BSc in Oral Hygiene and entry in the Dutch quality register for dental hygienists. As a self-employed professional you arrange your own registration, insurance and continuing education.
What you bring
Independence: you run your clinic as though it were your own practice, including the conversations with patients who have been putting off their oral hygiene for years. Honestly: the Friday is fixed, the other days are flexible — so that fixed Friday comes with it.
