This is an excellent opportunity to step into an existing orthodontic program with consistent consult flow, experienced clinical support, and significant room to grow.

You’ll be working alongside a collaborative team of 4 General Dentists and Specialists in a modern, well-run clinic that values communication, efficiency, and patient experience. This role is ideal for a provider looking for a recurring, predictable schedule in a supportive environment while building long-term relationships with a loyal patient base.

Schedule

• Wednesdays are preferred, though flexibility on hours may be considered for the right provider

About the Practice

The orthodontic program is well established and growing, with an average of 7 orthodontic consults per month and 3–4 case starts monthly, leaving strong opportunity for expansion. All financial discussions and predeterminations are handled by a dedicated Treatment Coordinator, allowing you to focus entirely on patient care.

• Treatment Coordinators who send X-rays and photos for predeterminations to streamline approvals
• A collaborative referral base from four GP providers within the practice
• Marketing support to continue growing the orthodontic program

All new orthodontic cases will belong to the incoming provider. Existing cases will be completed by the current orthodontist to ensure continuity of care.
