Employee Testimonials

I have been a dental assistant for 9 years, and I truly love my career. Working with Dental Express Staffing has taken me further than I ever imagined. In just 9 months, I’ve gained hands-on experience with procedures like oral surgeries and implants—things I never thought I’d be capable of doing so quickly. I’ve been fortunate to work alongside incredible doctors who trained me step by step and trusted me enough to ask me back time and time again. Helping people achieve healthy smiles is my favorite part of what I do, and the networking opportunities I’ve gained through Dental Express have been invaluable. As a parent of five, having the flexibility to choose my schedule has been a huge blessing.

I spent the majority of my career in the same office so upon my dentist's retirement, I wanted a little more freedom in my schedule. I have enjoyed being able to schedule my own time and gaining the confidence to walk into any office and go to work. I especially enjoy the variety that comes from traveling to different offices. I have found DES to be very supportive with my concerns and have been able to stay as busy as I have wanted for the past six years. DES is a wonderful company to work for!!

Working with Dental Express has been a wonderful part of my professional journey. They create an environment that is flexible, supportive, and truly understanding of the demands many hygienists face. Their smooth scheduling process, open communication, and consistent encouragement allow me to focus on providing the best care possible. I’m grateful to work with an agency that not only values professionalism, but also genuinely cares about the people they serve.

Why Kim enjoys working with Dental Express: After feeling burnt out, temping through DES has renewed her love for dental hygiene. She appreciates the flexibility to create her own schedule, the variety of working in different offices, and the supportive, helpful DE staff. The perks based on hours worked are a great bonus, too!

There are many reasons why I love working for Dental Express! Two major reasons are this company really cares about their employees, and the flexibility! My family and I are missionaries serving in Iquitos, Peru. We bounce back and forth (America and Peru) 3-4 times per year and working for DES allow us to do this!

"I have worked for DES since 2016. Some years I temped a few times a year (when I wanted extra loot!) and for a few years as my main income. DES shares job opportunities according to the availability and driving distance you choose yourself. There are descriptions of the office software, the office pace, and other information to help gain insights into what to expect. Besides the flexibility (which I love!!!), I’ve met so many people, developed a large network of dental friends and acquaintances, and discovered how adaptable I am. Bonuses, fair wages, mileage, control over your schedule, discounts, and a supportive team-why wouldn’t you interview here-even if you are just occasional? You never know when this could become your main gig. Highly recommend DES! Putting yourself into a different environment can help with potential jobs and provides a “new perspective”-a “try before you buy” chance to check out dental offices/philosophies/personalities. Nothing to lose!"

About a year and half ago, I made the difficult decision to leave a wonderful office in order to be home with my daughter and start homeschooling. Being a part of the Dental Express team has meant working as my schedule allows. The work/life balance has been irreplaceable. One of the joys of my job is connecting with other dental professionals and learning about new products and equipment. It is always my goal for an office to feel like they didn't have someone filling in that day. 

I’m more than happy to have found a great home at DES too. The flexibility with my schedule is of course nice, but meeting great people, both patients and dental workers alike has honestly been a joy! Each office has its own little family, and it’s fun to spend the day learning from a new place.
