A community that has your back
TempStars was built by a practising dentist for fellow dental professionals — we understand the stress of an unpredictable job market and the frustration of being hassled and undervalued by agencies.
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 temp shifts across Edmonton
You know the Edmonton drive: the QEII run from south of the city, the rush across the High Level Bridge into downtown, the slow crawl on Anthony Henday when the snow comes early. With TempStars you decide which shifts are worth it. Browse open hygiene and assisting days in your own neighbourhoods – Old Strathcona, Oliver, downtown, Windermere or the far reaches of the south side – and submit an offer at the rate you choose. No recruiter calling at dinner, no agency quietly shaving a piece off your pay.
For dental hygienists and dental assistants, the Capital Region is a real advantage: a quiet week in Edmonton can be balanced by a busy one in St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove or Beaumont.

Edmonton dental temp jobs FAQ
How do I find dental temp shifts in Edmonton?
Download the free TempStars app and create your profile, then browse open hygiene and assisting shifts across Edmonton and the Capital Region. When one fits your schedule, you submit an offer at your own rate. If the office confirms you, you show up, treat patients and get paid – with a Payment Guarantee on every shift.
Does it cost dental hygienists or assistants anything to use TempStars?
No. TempStars is always free for dental hygienists and dental assistants. There are no membership fees and no cut taken from your pay – you keep the rate you set and the office covers a separate flat fee only after the shift is completed.
Can I pick up shifts around Edmonton, like in St. Albert or Sherwood Park?
Yes. Offices across the Capital Region – including St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove and Beaumont – post shifts on TempStars, so you can choose work that fits your commute. You decide which shifts to submit offers on and how far you're willing to travel. The number of available shifts varies by day and area.
Do I really get to set my own rate?
Yes – Choose Your Own Rate is built into every shift. You submit an offer at the rate you want rather than accepting whatever an agency dictates. The office reviews your offer and your Recommendation Score, built from your real temping reviews and track record, before confirming.
