Dental Staffing in Mississauga, ON
When a hygiene or assisting day suddenly opens up in Mississauga, you can post the shift in minutes and review skilled local temps ready to step in. Keep your chairs full and your patients cared for across the western GTA without agency fees.
One call-in shouldn’t cost you the day
You shouldn’t have to gamble your production and your patients on one person’s availability — or get gouged by an agency to fix it.
- A 6 a.m. call-in puts the whole schedule at risk
- Lost production when chairs sit empty
- Patients rescheduled and inconvenienced
- Hefty agency placement fees and markups

Trusted by dental offices across Ontario and beyond
TempStars started because our founder, a practising dentist, lived the 6 a.m. “I can’t make it in” panic himself — so we know exactly how stressful an empty chair feels, and how much an agency fee stings on top of it.
Built by a dentist, for the profession. TempStars was founded in 2015 by Dr. James Younger, a practising dentist (University of Toronto, 1999). It is the #1 dental temping and hiring platform in North America — not an agency, and proud of it.

Dental staffing across Mississauga
Mississauga practices feel the squeeze in ways a smaller town never does. A no-show at a Square One or Cooksville office near the 403 and Hurontario corridor can ripple through a fully booked hygiene column by mid-morning, while a family practice out in Erin Mills or Meadowvale juggles patients who drove in from Brampton, Oakville and Etobicoke for that appointment. When the 6 a.m. text arrives, the old agency model leaves you waiting on a callback you can't afford.
TempStars draws on a wide pool of dental hygienists and dental assistants across the western GTA, many of whom already work shifts from Port Credit and Lakeview up to Streetsville and Clarkson. Because so many professionals commute the same Highway 403, 401 and lakeshore routes you do, the right temp may already know your part of the city. You review each candidate's rate and Recommendation Score, approve who fits, and protect your production, without contracts or placement fees.

Mississauga dental staffing FAQ
How quickly can I fill an open shift in Mississauga?
You can post a hygiene or assisting shift in minutes and start reviewing available local temps right away. Availability depends on which professionals are free that day, so while many Mississauga and western GTA offices fill shifts successfully, we never guarantee a specific shift will be filled or by a certain time.
What does it cost a Mississauga office to use TempStars?
Offices pay a flat fee of $73 plus tax in Canadian dollars, charged only after a shift is successfully completed. There are no subscriptions, no placement fees and no markups. It is always free for the dental hygienists and dental assistants themselves.
Are the temps local to Mississauga and the western GTA?
TempStars connects you with dental hygienists and dental assistants across the western GTA, including professionals who already work shifts around Square One, Port Credit, Erin Mills and Meadowvale. Many commute the same 403, 401 and QEW routes as your patients, so they often know the area well.
How do I know a temp is reliable before they arrive?
Every professional carries a Recommendation Score built from real temping reviews and track records, shown alongside their chosen rate. You review that information and approve the person and rate yourself before confirming, so you stay in control of who steps into your chair.
