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 Coquitlam
If you're a dental hygienist or dental assistant living in Coquitlam, your ideal commute might mean a shift near Coquitlam Centre one day and Port Moody or Port Coquitlam the next — without an agency dictating where you go or how much you earn. TempStars puts the Tri-Cities in your hands: browse real local shifts, see the rate, and decide what fits your day. The Evergreen Extension of the SkyTrain and the Lougheed corridor make hopping between offices in the area genuinely practical, so you can keep your week full on your own terms.
Because so many Tri-Cities professionals also pick up days in Burnaby and New Westminster, your options stretch well beyond your home neighbourhood — whether you're up on Burke Mountain or closer to the Fraser. You set your own rate instead of accepting whatever a recruiter offers, and there are no markups skimmed off your pay. TempStars is always free for dental hygienists and dental assistants, built by a dentist who understands an unpredictable job market and the feeling of being undervalued.
