Job Description

Job Description

Lead General Dentist / Ownership Opportunity — Albuquerque, NM

Most dentists looking for their next move are presented with two choices: join a large DSO and remain an employee, or buy a practice and take on the debt, operational burden, and limitations of building everything yourself.

We're offering a third option: step into an established platform, earn at a high level, and have a real path to ownership.

We own and operate three high-volume dental practices in the Albuquerque area generating approximately $7 million in annual revenue . Over the past five years, we've acquired and built these offices around strong systems, experienced teams, consistent marketing, collections, training, and operational support.

The infrastructure is already here. So are the patients.

What we need is the right dentist to become the clinical anchor of the organization.

Following the passing of our founding partner, we have an opportunity within our ownership group that we cannot fill internally: a Lead General Dentist who wants to practice at a high level today and help build the company with us over the long term.

This Is a Genuine Ownership Opportunity

Ownership isn't being dangled as a vague possibility years down the road.

There is a real path to equity for the right doctor , and we believe that doctor should have a voice in how their ownership opportunity is structured.

Our philosophy is simple: when you invest in great partners, great partners invest back into the business. That's how we've built the group, and it's how we intend to grow it.

You won't be expected to oversee three offices on day one.

Start by anchoring one location. Step into an established patient base and full schedule, lead clinically, produce, and make the office your own. Once you've established yourself, the opportunity expands into the broader organization—including strategy, growth, future locations, and ultimately the partner group itself.

We're focused on expanding throughout the Albuquerque market before looking elsewhere, and we want our lead dentist involved in deciding what comes next.

Compensation

Earn up to 35% of collections.

No complicated tier structure. No artificial production ceiling.

For a productive dentist, this is an opportunity to build $250,000–$350,000+ annual income , with significant upside based on your production.

Additional compensation can include:

  • $20,000–$40,000 sign-on bonus
  • Relocation assistance
  • Office production incentives
  • Customizable benefits
  • Continuing education and advanced clinical training
  • Path to equity/ownership

Practice the Dentistry You Want to Practice

You'll have full clinical autonomy . Do the procedures you enjoy and refer the ones you don't.

Our offices provide access to advanced technology and capabilities including:

  • PANO / CBCT
  • Digital scanning
  • 3D printing
  • Nomad X-ray systems
  • WaveOne endodontics
  • Diode lasers
  • Implant motors
  • Surgical capabilities
  • IV sedation capabilities

If you want to expand your skill set in implants, complex extractions, surgery, IV sedation, or other advanced procedures , we'll invest in the mentorship and CE to help you get there.

If you already perform advanced dentistry, you'll have the equipment, patient flow, and autonomy to put those skills to work.

Your Schedule. Your Practice Style.

We aren't looking to force the right dentist into a corporate template.

Want to work three longer clinical days? Four days? Five? We can build the schedule around your goals, production expectations, and bandwidth.

Our job is to build the operational infrastructure around a great clinician—not make a great clinician conform to unnecessary bureaucracy.

That means you aren't responsible for taking out loans, figuring out marketing, training the front desk, chasing insurance companies, or building an office from scratch.

Experienced office managers, staff, operational leadership, and an established orthodontic component are already in place.

You focus on patients, dentistry, and clinical leadership. We handle the infrastructure around you.

Who We're Looking For

This isn't an administrative position, and it isn't designed for someone looking for a short-term associate role.

We're looking for a high-performing General Dentist who wants to put down roots in Albuquerque , produce at a high level, develop as a clinician and leader, and eventually own part of what they help build.

You get the earning potential and clinical freedom of private practice, the infrastructure and patient flow of a larger organization, and something most associate positions can't offer:

A legitimate seat at the ownership table.

If you're looking for more than your next associate position and want to explore what it could look like to help lead and own a growing dental group, we'd like to talk.
