About DayDent

A little less scrambling. A better day in dentistry.

DayDent connects dental clinics across Metro Vancouver with hygienists, dental assistants, and administrators for temporary shifts—helping clinics find coverage and professionals find work that fits their availability.

Why I built DayDent

I’m a practicing dentist in Metro Vancouver. I wanted to build something useful for the people who keep dental practices running: a simple app that’s easy for everyone to use.

Working in dentistry, I know how much each person contributes to the day. When a team needs coverage, finding someone becomes one more thing to manage alongside patients and everything else happening in the clinic.

That’s where the idea for DayDent began. I wanted to make it easier for clinics and dental professionals to find each other, discuss the details, and decide whether a shift works for them.

My goal is simple: make finding coverage or your next shift a little easier, so you can get on with your day.

How it works

Clinics post open shifts. Professionals share their availability. DayDent helps connect them, with messaging to work out the details and a way to reconnect after working together.

Clinics and professionals stay in control of who they work with and agree directly on rates, responsibilities, and employment arrangements.

Clear pricing

Posting a shift and reviewing candidates is free. Clinics pay CAD $25 once per booking, charged when they confirm the booking and authorize the total. Contact details and shared resumes are released once required payment succeeds or an approved waiver applies. Rebooking a professional who has completed a shift at that same clinic location before is CAD $10. DayDent is always free for professionals.

Our role

DayDent is a connection platform. We do not employ, vet, or insure users. Clinics and professionals are responsible for confirming credentials, checking suitability, and arranging the terms of their work together.
