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 Hamilton
You know how patchwork dental temping can feel around Hamilton: a clinic downtown today, a family practice in Ancaster next week, maybe a longer drive out to Stoney Creek or Waterdown when the rate is right. Plenty of hygienists and assistants here also pick up days in Burlington and across the Halton corridor, which means your skills are in demand well beyond a single neighbourhood. With TempStars you browse local shifts, submit an offer at your own rate, and decide which ones are worth your time, instead of waiting on a recruiter to call with whatever they're willing to pay.
TempStars was built by a dentist for fellow dental professionals, so it's made for people who are tired of being undervalued and talked down to on rate.

Whether you want a full week near Westdale and Dundas or just a couple of days a month between other commitments, you stay in control of your schedule and what you earn.
