Expected Earnings: $250,000+ annually

• 401(k), eligible after one year
• Path to partnership for a dentist who establishes themselves in the office

This is a full-time role as the lead and only doctor in the office
. You own the schedule, the treatment planning, and the patient relationships, and the practice backs you with an experienced team, modern technology, and a book of patients that's already built.

You'll practice a broad scope of general dentistry with a surgical and endodontic focus
, including:

• Root canals, including molar endo
• Surgical extractions and bone grafting
• Implant placement (preferred)
• Comprehensive general and restorative dentistry

You’ll be supported by modern technology
, including:

• CBCT imaging

The ideal candidate is:

• A licensed general dentist with 3+ years of experience
• Confident in molar endo and surgical extractions
• Comfortable working independently and leading a clinical team
• A natural leader who takes ownership of the practice's results
• Looking to grow into partnership and build a long‑term career here
