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 Markham

If you live in Markham, you know how much of your driving time gets eaten by the 404 and 407. With TempStars you can browse shifts close to home — in Unionville, Cornell, Thornhill, Greensborough or out toward Milliken Mills — and submit offers only for the days and locations that actually work for your commute. No recruiter deciding where you go, no awkward calls trying to talk you into a long haul into central Toronto when there's a chair open ten minutes away.

Markham and the wider York Region market move differently than downtown, and dental hygienists and assistants here often want flexibility without giving up a cut of their pay to an agency. On TempStars you set your own rate, build a profile and Recommendation Score from your real shifts, and get the Payment Guarantee on every confirmed booking. Work as much or as little as you want, fill the gaps in your week with local shifts, and keep what you earn.
