We are now looking for an engaged dental hygienist who wants to make a difference

Main tasks and responsibilities

At Folktandvården Källstorp, you will meet patients of all ages with various care needs. As a dental hygienist with us, you play a vital role in ensuring patients feel well-received and secure during their visit. You will utilize your full range of skills, and the role also requires creativity, empathy, and a service-oriented mindset.

The position includes, among other things:

• Being a key part of the clinic's health-promoting and preventive dental care for all ages
• Conducting own examinations, as well as identifying, assessing, and planning appropriate oral health care measures
• Outreach dental care at nursing homes

We currently have a total of 22 employees. We have a high ceiling—lots of laughter and good collaboration! Since one of our skilled hygienists has retired, our other hygienist is missing a colleague in the same category. Are you that person? We hope so! We warmly welcome your application to this small clinic with a big heart!

If you commute by bus, the bus stop is just a stone's throw from the clinic. If you take the train, you can walk to us in 15 minutes from the train station.

If you drive your own car, you can park for free outside the clinic. There are also charging stations for electric cars right outside.
