Associate Dentist — Join Gorge Dental
Gorge Dental | 2–3 Days/Week Initially | 1099
We’re Looking for the Right Dentist, Not Just Another Provider
Gorge Dental is looking for an Associate Dentist who is passionate about providing thoughtful, comprehensive, high-quality dentistry and wants to build something meaningful with our team.
We are an out-of-network practice transitioning toward fully fee-for-service care, and we’re intentionally moving away from a high-volume model. We want a dentist who believes that excellent dentistry takes time, careful planning, strong clinical judgment, and genuine connection with patients.
If you’re the kind of dentist who wants to know why you’re doing something—not just how quickly you can do it—we’d love to meet you.
The Opportunity
- 2–3 days per week initially, with potential for additional days as the practice grows
- 30–32% of production, depending on experience
- 1099 independent contractor position
- Practice pays all lab fees
- Ideally 3–4+ years out of dental school
- Opportunity for mentorship and continued clinical development
Who We’re Looking For
We’re ideally looking for a dentist with:
- Strong general restorative skills
- Strong CAD/CAM experience
- An interest in biomimetic, conservative, and evidence-based dentistry
- A commitment to comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning
- Excellent communication and patient relationship skills
- A genuine desire to continue growing clinically
You do not need to already be an expert in biomimetic dentistry. If you’re genuinely interested in conservative, evidence-based approaches and excited to develop your skills in that direction, we’re willing to support your growth.
Mentorship & Growth
We want this to be a place where you can continue becoming a better clinician.
Mentorship is available in areas including:
- Implant dentistry
- Endodontics
- Comprehensive treatment planning
- Conservative and biomimetic restorative techniques
There is also potential for future CE support as we build a long-term relationship.
The Gorge Dental Philosophy
Our philosophy is simple:
“Gorge Dental provides excellent care through honesty, compassion, respect, and genuine human connection.”
We want that philosophy to be evident in everything you do.
That means taking the time to listen to patients, communicating honestly, treatment planning thoughtfully, respecting patient autonomy, and treating people like people—not production numbers.
We’re not looking for someone who simply wants to fill a schedule.
We’re looking for a dentist who is passionate about dentistry, invested in their patients, proud of the work they provide, and excited to keep learning.
Why Gorge Dental?
If you value:
- Quality over volume
- Comprehensive care over quick fixes
- Conservative dentistry over unnecessary treatment
- Long-term patient relationships over transactional dentistry
- Clinical growth over staying comfortable
- Genuine human connection over the typical dental-office experience
…you may be a great fit for our team.
If you’re looking for a place where you can practice the kind of dentistry you believe in—and continue developing as a clinician—we’d love to hear from you.
