If you’re still using Indeed to hire dental staff, you’re doing it the hard way.
Indeed is a massive, general-purpose job board built for everyone — from warehouse workers to software engineers. That sounds like a feature, but it’s actually a problem for the dental industry. When you post a dental hygienist position on Indeed, you’re fishing in an ocean. You’ll get flooded with applications from people who’ve never touched a dental handpiece, spend hours reviewing resumes that go nowhere, and still somehow struggle to find the right candidate. Not to mention the wasted budget spent on clicks by non-qualified candidates.
Cloud Dentistry was built specifically to solve this — and it shows.
Stop Sorting Through Unqualified Applicants
On Indeed, anyone can apply to anything. That means your front desk posting attracts applicants with zero dental experience, and your hygienist role may get résumés from people who Googled “what is a dental hygienist” five minutes before applying.
Cloud Dentistry is a dental-only platform. Every single professional on it — hygienists, assistants, front office staff, dentists — is there because they work in dentistry. No noise. No wasted time. Just qualified candidates who already understand your world.
Cloud Dentistry verifies all professionals, including dental licensures, certifications, and photo IDs. All professionals are also required to complete a background check, ensuring your practice is making the smartest, safest hiring decisions. Indeed not only doesn’t offer background checks, but it also doesn’t verify a candidate’s identity.
Built for Dentistry, Not Just Posted on a Job Board
Indeed treats every job the same. Cloud Dentistry doesn’t.
Cloud Dentistry’s platform is designed around how dental hiring actually works — with features like license verification, specialty filters, and the ability to hire for both permanent and temporary roles. Need a hygienist to cover two days next week? Cloud Dentistry handles that. Looking to bring on a full-time associate? It handles that too. And if you hire your temp to work full time in your office, Cloud Dentistry also does not charge buy-out or placement fees.
Indeed can’t do any of this. It wasn’t built to.
Faster Hires, Less Headache
The average dental practice spends weeks — sometimes months — trying to fill an open role through traditional job boards. That’s revenue walking out the door every day a chair sits empty.
Because Cloud Dentistry connects you directly with pre-qualified dental professionals who are actively looking, practices consistently hire faster. You’re not starting from scratch with every search. You’re tapping into a dedicated network that’s ready to work. Cloud Dentistry’s average booking confirmation is <10 minutes* – once your office has an account created, you can immediately search verified dental talent in your area. When you’re ready to hire, upgrade to our budget-friendly subscription plans and post your first job.
The Bottom Line
Indeed is a tool built for the masses. Cloud Dentistry is built for you.
If your practice depends on finding skilled, reliable dental professionals quickly — and whose doesn’t? — then posting on a generic job board and hoping for the best isn’t a strategy. It’s a gamble.
Cloud Dentistry puts your job in front of the right people, with the right credentials, who are ready to join a dental team. That’s not just better than Indeed. It’s a completely different experience.
