Job Description

Description:

 

Associate Dentist – Clear Lakes Dental | No Gimmicks, Just Real Support

Let’s skip the fluff.

At Clear Lakes Dental, we’re reimagining the associate dentist experience—one that’s transparent, growth-focused, and built around real support. No bait-and-switch. No corporate nonsense.

Compensation & Perks (Real Talk)
  • Guaranteed base salary of $180,000
    We just start higher—because you deserve it.
  • OR 30% of collections (whichever is greater)
    And it increases 2% annually, up to 40%. That’s real, long-term earning potential.
  • No restrictive covenants / non-competes
    We believe in keeping you here because you want to stay—not because you’re stuck.
  • $2,000 CE allowance (paid separately from salary)
    Many offices deduct CE from your earnings—we don’t . Plus, in-house CPR, HIPAA, and OSHA training is covered.
  • Health Insurance & 401(k) starting after 3 months
    Not 12. Not “someday.” We value you from the start.
  • Malpractice insurance provided
  • Holidays & PTO
    Work-life balance is a priority.
What’s It Like Working Here?

“No Stress, No Drama.” That’s our team motto.
We handle the HR, paperwork, billing, marketing, and operations—so you can just focus on doing great dentistry.

Our clinics serve patients of all ages and accept nearly all insurances. We’re fast-paced, organized, and backed by an incredible support team that makes your day smoother and more productive.

Your Role as an Associate Dentist:
  • Diagnose and treat oral diseases
  • Develop treatment plans to maintain or restore oral health
  • Perform dental procedures, including restorative and surgical
  • Promote preventive care and long-term oral health
  • Interpret diagnostic tools like x-rays and scans
  • Ensure safe use of anesthetics and monitor patient response
Schedule & Job Details:
  • Hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM
  • Job Type: Full-time or Part-time
  • Compensation Range: $180,000 – $370,000 per year
  • Work Setting: In-person
What You’ll Need:
  • DDS or DMD degree from an accredited program
  • Active Dental License (or eligibility to obtain one)
  • A commitment to high-quality, patient-first care

Ready to actually enjoy going to work?
Join a dental practice that respects your time, pays you fairly, and helps you grow.

Apply today and let’s build something real together.
