My experience with Toothio has been great. The onboarding process was simple, communication has been professional, and the app is easy to use. I appreciate the flexibility of choosing shifts that fit my schedule.highly recommended.

Dissent

The other side

The recurring complaints worth keeping an eye on — the dissent behind the ratings.

Bad temping agency! Unfortunately they have most shifts available. Be prepared for -ve surprises! It got worse.

I like that the app it got me a shift right away but I wish there were closer shifts in Distance, available to me that are for gp not only for ortho. I do not have much experience in that area. Also displaying shifts that don’t have to have an RDA license to work them. Possibly something that more pertains to the individual who set up the account to find the shifts more available to them. Defining more of their expertise.

Was good up until they had stuff to say — I had 2 shifts and they were too picky and expected to have me know everything they knew so they paused my account cuz they had a problem with me not knowing how to do temporary crowns or scanning and especially since I didn’t have the certifications for it cuz I came from California and this is Arizona. The manager of the app spoke with me and said if the offices complain about me again that they are gonna deactivate my account permanently. I couldn’t even ask a lot of questions either. Like cmon I’m trying my best and it’s still not good enough for any of u guys. I’m a hard worker in the field and I wasn’t lazy or on my phone. U guys should protect us instead of punishing us for permanently deactivating our accounts like seriously we’re not robots or ai. I’m a human being who just wants to do things the right way.

Missing shifts — Keeps logging me off so I end up missing shifts. Extremely annoying.

Low pay — I set my hourly amount and I get notifications for shifts that are $8 less per hour than my minimum. No one on this app pays my rate, but thankfully I get plenty of temp jobs at my rate on a local dental staffing app. I was also approached by a Toothio recruiter and when I told them I’m not interested in a permanent position with a dental office due to having to be a caregiver for my Mom at the moment, they still sent my info to a dental office which reached out to me. I had to tell them sorry Toothio sent over my info when I said no.

No Jobs Available — I don’t know if it’s my area(DMV) or that’s it’s close to the holidays but there aren’t any jobs. I’m deleting the app and my account and sticking to another service.

Dental hygienists and assistants offer mixed assessments of Toothio, with significant operational and customer service concerns offsetting praise for app usability and shift flexibility. Users consistently commend the platform's intuitive interface, same-day payment, and ability to select shifts independently; however, recurring complaints center on technical failures (automatic logouts, authentication glitches, app crashes), limited or nonexistent job availability in many regions, inadequate customer support accessibility, pay discrepancies that fall short of stated rates, and instances of account deactivation without adequate support or due process. Additional grievances include unsolicited data sharing, difficulty filtering shifts by license and location requirements, and reports of substandard office placements. While some users report positive individual shift experiences, the cumulative feedback suggests Toothio struggles with reliability, regional coverage, and professional accountability, making competing platforms appear more dependable for sustained temporary staffing needs.

I live in SoCal and temp full time. There’s been a decrease in it since around 2023 but you can still find a consistent amount! I use both of these platforms for finding the most and super easy to use! https://www.princessdentalstaffing.com/r/ef8a083104edab50acec42234bc14573 https://pro.toothio.co/professional/signup?…

I've used a few apps to help me fill days when my current office is closed. I've tried a couple where there just weren't enough jobs, like on Cloud and Toothio. Plus I've been sent to a few shady offices using Toothio. The best bet has been with Princess. I think they have the best offices too, usually…

It really depends on where you’re located and if you’re willing to travel, I would recommend downloading a few apps, but yes, it is sustainable. In my area there are a lot of offices in need of hygienists. Teero, Kwikly, Clipboard, GoTu, toothio. There are also temp agencies that you can work with if you can’t find of…

Toothio — Long ago, maybe a year ago I downloaded the Toothio app and signed interest for temp work. The company never had anything in my area and I have not opened their app in at least 10 months.

I’ve tried most of the dental temping apps! Here are my honest thoughts (Central FL RDH who also picks up DA shifts) and what I wish I knew before going full-time temp — Hi! I’m a dental hygienist in Central Florida who temps full time. Because I’m full time temping, I also pick up dental assistant shifts if it makes sense $$$ wise. I genuinely love temping!

Ugh, that’s frustrating... Especially since they agreed to your schedule upfront. Temping could actually be a solid option if you’re juggling school. I’ve been using Toothio for picking up shifts and it’s super flexible and lets you work when you want with same day pay. Might be worth checking out while you figure out…
