Job Description

Alstonville Family Dental has been proudly serving the Alstonville community since 2012. Located in the Alstonville Shopping Plaza with ample parking and wheelchair access, our practice combines a welcoming, friendly environment with a long-standing, highly experienced team of clinicians and support staff.

We care for a loyal and diverse patient base, including families, retirees, and generally affluent clients. Our patients return regularly, with excellent recall rates, and over half have private health cover. Demand is high – our current Hygienist and OHT maintain waitlists of 3–6 weeks, reflecting the strength of our practice.

Why Join Alstonville Family Dental?

• Rewarding Patient Base: Build lasting relationships with long-standing clients who value your care.
• Supportive Team: Work alongside experienced, long-term staff in a friendly, collaborative environment.
• Prime Location: Enjoy flood-free living close to beaches, rainforests, and within 30 minutes of Byron Bay, just over an hour to the Gold Coast, and 2 hours to Brisbane.
• Work-Life Balance: Flexible scheduling and a professional, enjoyable workplace make it easy to balance career and lifestyle.

We’re seeking a passionate, patient-focused Hygienist for a part-time role working across both Alstonville Family Dental and Maven Dental Lismore, with two set days per week at Alstonville Family Dental. If you take pride in delivering exceptional dental care and value building long-term patient relationships, you’ll thrive here.
