OUR STORY

About Us

Our founder, himself a Dentist who has been in the profession for almost a decade who had experienced first-hand the challenges that both Dental Practices and professionals face when trying to find reliable locum cover.

Practices need skilled professionals they can trust to step in at short notice without compromising the standards, ethos, and reputation of their clinic. At the same time, Dental Nurses and Hygienists deserve fair pay, reliable shifts, and timely payments for the vital role they play within the dental team.

That's how Dentashift was born.

Developed as a platform to bring both sides together through a simple mobile platform that connects practices with qualified, compliant dental professionals when they need them most. All while significantly reducing the administrative stress to enable both to focus on what matters most: delivering great patient care in an efficient, positive and stress free environment.
