You will need proof of certification recognized by the Ontario Dental Assistants Association (ODAA) or equivalent, government-issued ID, and a police check where applicable. Additional certifications such as coronal polishing, fluoride application, or radiography can be added to your profile to increase visibility to clinics looking for those specific skills.
Once your credentials are verified and your availability is set, your profile becomes visible to Surrey clinics. How quickly you receive booking requests depends on your availability, hourly rate, location preferences, and current clinic demand in Surrey at the time of registration.

Dental assistants are expected to fulfill all confirmed shifts. Cancellations must be submitted through the platform at least 48 hours before the scheduled shift start time. Cancellations with less than 48 hours notice result in temporary deactivation of booking features. No-shows result in immediate account deactivation. Full details are available at tempfind.com/cancellation-policy-for-professionals/
If a clinic cancels a confirmed shift less than 24 hours before the scheduled start time, you are entitled to a cancellation fee equal to 50% of the shift total as partial compensation for lost income. Cancellations made 24 hours or more in advance do not carry a compensation obligation. Full policy details are at tempfind.com/cancellation-policy-for-clinics/
Yes. You can add language skills and other preferences to your profile. Surrey has a bilingual dental market and some clinics specify French-language requirements when posting shifts or sending booking requests. Indicating French fluency in your profile improves match quality with those clinics, particularly in Orléans, Vanier, and other francophone communities in the Surrey area.
When you register on Tempfind you create your own profile, set your own rate, and communicate directly with clinics through the platform. There are no placement fees charged to dental assistants and no agency acting as an intermediary. You control which shifts you take and which clinic relationships you build over time.
Check that your profile is fully complete, your credentials have been approved, and your availability is open and up to date. Make sure your hourly rate, location, and travel preferences are filled in correctly. If your documents are still under review your profile may not be visible to clinics yet. If everything looks correct and you are still not receiving requests, contact Tempfind support at [email protected].
