Credentials first, then care

State licence, state, and any permits with dates. Then describe the practice: patients per day, types of care (prophylaxis, SRP, sealants), software and equipment. Bullets about recare rates, case acceptance and patient education programs show impact beyond routine work. The Dental Assistant Resume is the support-role version of this layout. Hygienists moving into education or public health can compare the Teacher Resume for how instruction is presented.

Format

Single-column, one page unless you've had several practices. Corporate dental groups parse resumes, so keep credentials as text; the ATS-friendly checklist covers it. Other clinical layouts are under healthcare resume examples.
