Description
We are collaborating with a reputable private dental office that is seeking a dentist due to the retirement of the current dentist. This office has been a cornerstone of the community for over 40 years and boasts many long-term patients. The ideal candidate is an experienced dentist with aspirations to eventually own the practice.
The role primarily involves general restorative procedures, including crown and bridge work, simple extractions, basic endodontics, and implant restoration. Candidates interested in performing more advanced procedures are also encouraged to apply. Last year, the practice generated income of $365K, with the dentist working just 3.5 days per week, primarily in restorative procedures.
The office operates four days a week, with flexibility for dentists wishing to work 3 or 5 days, but this is not mandatory. Importantly, the position does not require any weekend or evening shifts. The practice offers a mix of Fee for Service, PPOs, and Medicaid, ensuring treatment options for all community members.
