Dear Ms. Battmer:

I am looking for a position as a dental hygienist. I am trained, licensed, and experienced in the tasks involved in this profession: teeth cleanings, radiographs, sealants, scalings, and root planing.

I know that good dental hygienists are in demand and must work efficiently and effectively. I believe I fit this profile. The hours you posted work perfectly with my needs and schedule. May I meet you in person to discuss this position?

I’d be happy to come to your office any weekday morning. Please call me on my cell phone: 888-888-8888 so we can arrange a date and time that fits your schedule. Thank you for reading and considering my cover letter.

Sincerely,

Maureen Bartlett
