• Partner with HR and operations to recruit, retain, and develop the right talent
• Play a key role in daily huddles, risk reporting, and clinical excellence initiatives
• Ensure compliance with OSHA, dental board regulations, and internal policies

We’re Looking For Someone Who:

• Holds an active DDS or DMD license in good standing
• Is confident practicing as a solo provider
• Has strong clinical and diagnostic skills, including comprehensive restorative care
• Excels in patient communication and education
• Enjoys the responsibility and reward of building relationships and growing a practice
