San Antonio is one of our three Texas markets, alongside Austin and Dallas. It's the closest of them to our Austin network, about an hour and a half down I-35, and the corridor between the two (New Braunfels, Schertz) is where a lot of Central Texas professionals already pick up work in both directions.
The city also trains a lot of its own clinicians through the UT Health San Antonio School of Dentistry, so there's a steady supply of newer dentists and hygienists. What's harder to find is someone experienced who can walk into an unfamiliar office on short notice and run a full column. That's the gap temp coverage fills.
How it works for San Antonio practices
You post the shift with the date, hours, role, and what you're paying. The alert goes out immediately to matching professionals in the area, and they apply from their phone. You see their rate, their credentials, and their rating from previous offices, then confirm the one you want.
There's no account manager in between and no markup buried in the professional's hourly rate. You pay them directly at the rate you agreed on, plus a flat daily placement fee to Oasis: $150 for a dentist, $60 for a hygienist, or $50 for an assistant. There's a one-time onboarding fee when you join, and no monthly subscription.
Because San Antonio is a newer market, posting a few days ahead gives your shift the best chance of filling. Coverage depends on who's available in your area.
Temp, temp-to-hire, and permanent
- Temp coverage. Sick days, PTO, CE, and extended leave.
- Temp-to-hire. Work with someone for a few days before either side commits.
- Permanent recruiting. Available in Texas. We start with a 30-minute call to see if it's a fit.
For dental professionals in San Antonio
You set your own rate instead of being handed one. You choose which offices you return to, and you can block out a week without asking anyone for time off.
Getting in early in a growing market has real advantages: fewer professionals competing for each posting, and offices that remember who showed up first. Dentists and hygienists are activated as soon as credentials are verified. Dental assistants have their profile reviewed first, and we ask for at least three years of chairside experience.
