The biggest difference is price. With Teero you pay about 20% less to the platform on every shift you book. And permanent placements are always free with Teero, while Kwikly charges a fee to hire a hygienist long term. Both employ dental hygienists as W-2 workers with full coverage, so the decision comes down to price and service.

A lower, flat service fee: 12% vs 15%

Both platforms now publish a flat service fee: Kwikly charges 15% per shift for hygienists, and Teero charges 12%. On the same shift, that is about 20% less going to the platform. Both bill the hygienist's W-2 wage and employer costs on top, so the service fee is the apples-to-apples number to compare, and Teero's is 20% less on every shift you book.

Permanent placements are always free

Found a hygienist you want to keep? With Teero, hiring them permanently is always free. Kwikly charges a permanent placement fee to bring someone on full-time, and those fees in dental staffing commonly run into the thousands.

Support that answers around the clock

Because both platforms employ W-2 hygienists, service becomes the tiebreaker. Teero offers 24/7 phone, email, and text with a dedicated account manager. Kwikly provides phone and email support but publishes no 24/7 commitment. When a morning goes sideways and you need coverage now, reaching a real person fast is what protects the schedule.

"We started using Teero in June of 2023, working with them has been such a wonderful experience. We have enjoyed working with all of the Teero team, whether it's setting up shifts, last minute changes or the team members coming to work with us in the office. We can't say enough great things about Teero. Teero has continued to improve the scheduling process since we started using them even though it was alright great to begin with. We are very happy with the care they put into helping our office just as it was their own. Thank you again for everything Teero!"

"We have been working with Teero since it’s inception, and Nate, and crew, are top notch! They are fun, professional, accommodating, and most of all do their best to help staff our busy office. In this day of unending needs, they see to it that we are well taken care of. The staff they employ are experienced and great to work with. The Teero website is super user friendly, which makes posting shifts a breeze. They are also helpful with directing us on current rates. If we are in need of an urgent professional, they help add a bonus to ensure we find someone quickly, and they are always prompt in their response to fill our open position. We are lucky to have found this gem!"

"I'm so happy that I found Rosie through Teero. After months of no luck with posting my hygiene position on the job websites, I had given up. Then I was connected with Rosie when she joined our office for a temporary role through Teero. She was able to work with us several times and we realized she was a great fit for us. Teero enabled us to quickly transition Rosie from a temporary position to a permanent team member at no additional cost."
