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.

Local coverage

Dental temp shifts across Kelowna

Dental work in the Okanagan is spread across a wide region, and that can either eat your day in driving or open up real choice. With TempStars you decide: take shifts close to home in Kelowna – downtown, Glenmore, Rutland or Lower Mission – or pick up days in West Kelowna, Lake Country or up toward Vernon when the rate and timing are worth the drive. You see the location and the rate before you offer, so no recruiter is quietly booking you somewhere across the valley you'd rather not go.

The Okanagan job market can feel unpredictable – summer brings a rush of patients and tourists, quieter stretches follow, and full-time hours aren't always steady. Whether you're a dental hygienist filling gaps between permanent days or a dental assistant who wants to work as much or as little as you choose, you set your own rate instead of accepting an agency's lowball number. Submit an offer, get confirmed, show up and get paid – with no markups, no awkward negotiations, and no one calling you all week.

Questions, answered

Kelowna dental temp jobs FAQ

Is TempStars free for hygienists and assistants in Kelowna?

Yes. TempStars is always free for dental hygienists and dental assistants – there's no fee to download the app, create a profile, browse shifts, or get paid. Offices pay a flat per-shift fee; you keep the rate you set.

Can I choose to work only in certain Okanagan areas?

You browse the available shifts and decide which to offer on, and you can see each location before you commit. If you'd rather stay near home in Kelowna or only travel to West Kelowna, Lake Country or Vernon when it suits you, that's entirely your call.

Do I really get to set my own rate?

Yes – you submit an offer at your own rate rather than accepting whatever an agency dictates. We can't promise a specific pay level since each office approves the rate it agrees to, but you're always the one naming your number, with no markups taken off the top.

What if I want only occasional shifts around Kelowna?

That works. You can pick up as much or as little as you like – a single day to fill a gap or a steady run of shifts. There are no contracts, and every confirmed shift comes with guarantees including Payment Guarantee and clear short-notice cancellation terms.
