Dental Staffing in Vaughan, ON

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 Vaughan
Running a practice in Vaughan means keeping pace with one of York Region's busiest, fastest-growing communities — from the family clinics tucked along Woodbridge's Market Lane and the offices serving Maple and Vellore Village, to the cluster of practices around the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and the Highway 7 and Jane corridors. When a hygienist or assistant calls in sick at 6 a.m., a single empty chair can throw off a full day of recall and hygiene production, and patients in a community this loyal notice when their appointment gets bumped.
TempStars connects your office with dental hygienists and dental assistants who already know the rhythm of practices across Vaughan, Thornhill, Concord, Kleinburg and neighbouring Richmond Hill and Markham — many a short drive up Highway 400 or across the 407. You post the shift, review local temps alongside their rates and Recommendation Scores, and approve the person and rate that fit. It is a practical way to protect your schedule and keep the day moving when life gets in the way.

You know the 6 a.m. "I can't make it in" text — the one that puts your whole Vaughan schedule at risk and threatens a day of lost production.

You pay a flat $73 plus tax only after a shift is successfully completed. When you are ready to keep your chairs full across Vaughan and York Region, post a shift.
