Why Placement Dentaire Jutras

Not a disguised agency. The opposite of an agency.

Traditional agencies take a ~$30/h margin off the hygienist's back — and charge the clinic ~$880 for an 8-hour shift. We post everything.

Specialties

The right match, not just anyone

A periodontal clinic doesn't need "someone" — it needs a hygienist who's comfortable with subgingival periodontal cleaning and deep scaling. Every profile lists its mastered acts, verified. We match accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

Who sets the hygienist's hourly rate?

The hygienist, always. She's the independent professional: she knows her worth, her specialties, her experience. We post a guideline grid to help (e.g.: $55–$65/h generalist, $65–$80/h specialized in periodontics), but we never impose a rate — it's also what legally distinguishes us from an employer.

How do you verify permits?

Every permit number is validated against the public OHDQ registry — not just an uploaded document. A fake number won't get through. Permits renew every year: we re-verify annually.

What does it cost for a hygienist?

Nothing. Zero. Signup is free forever and you receive 100% of your rate. The $7.50/h fees are paid by the clinic, posted publicly.

What if the hygienist cancels the same morning?

That's our "backup replacement" promise: we find you someone else, fast. At launch, it's Dimitri himself picking up the phone.

Who's behind Placement Dentaire Jutras?

Dimitri — a secretary at a periodontal clinic in Montreal. He lives the replacement headache every week, on both sides of the counter. That's where the idea came from, and he's the one matching by hand at launch.
