What You'll Do

As the facility's primary dental provider, you'll oversee and perform all aspects of dental care with a focus on prevention, treatment, and education. You'll work autonomously, yet collaboratively, within a multidisciplinary medical team and lead the charge on maintaining clinical quality, operational compliance, and a safe, respectful environment.

  • Routine exams, oral screenings, and preventive treatments

  • Simple and complex extractions

  • Anterior and premolar root canals

  • Denture fittings and restorative work (fillings, crowns, etc.)

• Diagnose dental conditions and formulate patient-centered treatment plans

• Educate patients on oral hygiene, disease prevention, and post-procedure care

• Maintain accurate, compliant, and confidential clinical records and treatment documentation

• Oversee dental support staff and maintain accountability for care quality and infection control

• Monitor supply inventory, ensure secure handling of instruments and medications

• Coordinate specialty referrals, external dental services, and contracted providers as needed

Why This Role Matters

You'll be the bridge between need and care for patients who often haven't had access to regular oral health services. With a well-resourced clinic, professional autonomy, and a strong support team, you'll focus on care, not quotas.
