Job Description
General Dentist Opportunity – Vandalia, Illinois | Established, High-Performing Private Group Practice (Confidential)4-Day Workweek | 11 Operatories | Eaglesoft | Strong Hygiene Department
Are you a confident, comprehensive General Dentist looking for a stable, busy schedule in a well-supported practice where you can do great dentistry and be as productive as you want to be? Our long-established, doctor-led private group practice in Vandalia, IL is seeking a full-time Associate Dentist to join a collaborative team with strong patient demand and efficient systems.
Experienced dentists are strongly preferred, but the practice is open to a 2026 graduating dentist or current resident who is coachable, clinically thoughtful, and excited to grow in a high-support environment.

We're looking for a dentist who enjoys comprehensive care and takes pride in doing quality work efficiently.
Ideal strengths include:

- A long-term, stable role in a close-knit community
