Associate Dentist

Associate Dentist, New Grads Welcome

Mentorship, autonomy, and real clinical growth.

ValhallaCare is hiring an Associate Dentist for a growing dental practice.

We are open to experienced doctors, but this role is especially well suited for a motivated new or recent grad who wants to become a stronger, faster, more confident clinician without being left to figure everything out alone.

You will have support as you grow in diagnosis, treatment planning, patient communication, clinical efficiency, case selection, and procedure mix.

What makes this different

Many associate roles either throw new doctors into the deep end or keep them doing the same basic procedures indefinitely.

We are building a different environment.

You will have support with:

• Clinical mentorship and case review
• Diagnosis and treatment planning
• Patient communication and case acceptance
• Efficient restorative workflows
• Same-day dentistry where appropriate
• Endo, extractions, removable, pediatric, sedation, and implant exposure depending on interest, competency, and location
• Clinical systems and templates that reduce guesswork
• A team focused on growth, ownership, and patient care

What you'll do

• Diagnose and treatment plan comprehensive dental care
• Perform general restorative dentistry
• Build trust with patients through clear communication
• Work closely with the clinical team to keep care efficient and organized
• Document thoroughly and follow clinical systems
• Expand your procedure mix as your competency grows

Who we're looking for

• DDS or DMD from an accredited dental school
• Active or pending state dental license
• New grads welcome
• Coachable and comfortable receiving feedback
• Strong communicator with patients and teammates
• Clinically curious and motivated to improve
• Wants to build speed without sacrificing quality
• Takes ownership of patient experience and outcomes
• Interested in growing beyond basic bread-and-butter dentistry

Your growth path

This role is designed for a doctor who wants to keep progressing.

Depending on your starting skill level and interests, you can develop toward:

• Faster and more predictable restorative dentistry
• Stronger diagnosis and treatment planning
• Endodontics
• Surgical extractions
• Removable prosthetics
• Pediatric dentistry
• Oral sedation, where permitted and credentialed
• Implant restoration and surgical exposure
• Clinical and leadership opportunities as the group grows

You do not need to arrive knowing everything.

We are looking for someone who wants to become substantially better over the next 12 to 24 months.

The right fit

This role is for a doctor who wants:

Mentorship without micromanagement.
Autonomy without being abandoned.
Clinical growth without a corporate ceiling.

If you are coachable, patient-centered, clinically curious, and serious about becoming an excellent dentist, we'd like to meet you.

Pay: $200,000.00 - $300,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
