Associate Dentist Implant-Focused Practice + Mentorship Opportunity

Associate Dentist Opportunity

The Staff Pad is partnering with a well-established, patient-centered dental practice in the Edina area to identify an Associate Dentist for a growth-oriented opportunity. This role is ideal for a dentist who values quality dentistry, strong mentorship, and a collaborative team environment with the ability to grow into a long-term position within the practice.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Established, implant-focused general dentistry practice
• Direct mentorship from an experienced senior doctor
• Supportive, tenured clinical team
• Expansion-driven role with long-term stability
• Opportunity to grow alongside the practice

About the Practice:

• Well-established general and implant dentistry practice
• Warm, laid-back culture with a strong patient-first approach
• Experienced team including multiple hygienists and dental assistants
• Efficient, well-supported clinical environment
• Located in a highly desirable Twin Cities suburb

The Opportunity:

The practice is entering a growth phase, expanding hours and planning for a thoughtful provider transition. This creates an opportunity for an associate to step in, build relationships, and develop within a stable and supportive setting. You'll work closely with the senior doctor, gaining exposure to implant dentistry and advanced procedures, while building your own patient base over time.

What You'll Do:

• Provide comprehensive general dentistry with exposure to implant cases
• Collaborate closely with a tenured clinical support team
• Partner with the senior doctor on mentorship and patient care
• Contribute to practice growth as hours and patient demand expand

Who You Are:

• DDS or DMD with Minnesota licensure (or eligibility)
• 25 years of experience preferred
• Comfortable in a collaborative, patient-focused environment
• Interested in expanding clinical skills, particularly in implants
• Easygoing, personable, and team-oriented

Schedule:

• Part-time to start (23 days per week)
• Friday availability strongly preferred
• Opportunity to grow into additional days as the practice expands

What You Can Expect:

• Strong clinical support and mentorship
• Autonomy in patient care without rigid production pressure
• A stable, growth-minded environment focused on long-term success
• Opportunity to build a lasting career within the practice
