POSTED ON 8/21/2026

Heck Family Dentistry

Lawrence, KS

Full-Time | Flexible Schedule Options

$40–$45 per hour

Heck Family Dentistry is looking for a full-time Dental Hygienist to join our team in Lawrence, Kansas.

If you are a hygienist who wants competitive pay, flexibility in your schedule, a strong benefits package, and a practice where you can build real relationships with patients, this is worth a conversation.

Our practice is especially committed to helping people who may be nervous or anxious about dental care. That makes our hygiene team incredibly important. We need someone who can provide excellent clinical care while also creating the kind of calm, comfortable experience that keeps patients coming back.

Pay, Schedule & Benefits

  • $40–$45 per hour, based on experience
  • Full-time position
  • Flexible schedule options
  • Practice is open Monday–Friday
  • Medical insurance with company-paid contribution
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Company-paid basic life insurance
  • Short-term and long-term disability
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Competitive PTO
  • Paid holidays

We know schedule matters. Rather than requiring every hygienist to fit into exactly the same weekly template, we are open to discussing how a full-time schedule can work within our Monday–Friday patient schedule.

More Than Just a Hygiene Column

At Heck Family Dentistry, we want patients to feel like they are being cared for by people who know them — not moved through an appointment.

Our hygienists play an important role in prevention, periodontal health, patient education, treatment conversations, and helping patients feel confident about their dental care.

Heck Family Dentistry provides everything from routine preventive care to advanced restorative treatment, implants, cosmetic dentistry, and multiple sedation options. The practice has a particular focus on creating a comfortable experience for patients with dental fear and anxiety.

What You'll Do

  • Provide comprehensive preventive dental hygiene care
  • Perform adult and pediatric prophylaxis
  • Complete periodontal assessments and charting
  • Provide scaling and root planing when indicated
  • Take diagnostic dental x-rays
  • Educate patients about periodontal health, home care, and preventive treatment
  • Help patients understand recommended care
  • Partner closely with our dentists and clinical team
  • Maintain accurate clinical documentation
  • Follow infection control and safety standards
  • Create a calm and comfortable experience for patients, including those with dental anxiety

Who We're Looking For

  • Active Kansas Dental Hygienist license
  • Strong clinical hygiene skills
  • Excellent patient communication
  • Gentle, confident, and compassionate chairside manner
  • Ability to make anxious patients feel comfortable
  • Reliable and organized
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Team-oriented approach
  • Commitment to patient education and prevention
  • Comfortable working in a comprehensive dental practice

Experience is welcome, but just as important is how you care for patients and work with the people around you.
