Associate Orthodontist - Clayton MO

Associate Orthodontist Opportunity

Amazing Smiles Orthodontics is looking for an Associate Orthodontist to join our growing team across the Greater St. Louis area. This is an opportunity to step into an established, thriving orthodontic organization with multiple locations, an experienced team, and the infrastructure to support you as you build a rewarding long-term career. We are seeking a full-time Associate Orthodontist, 4 days per week, with primary patient care in Clayton, Missouri. Along with opportunities to provide access to care at our additional locations in St. Peters, O'Fallon, and Glen Carbon. We're looking for someone who is clinically confident, motivated, competitive, and excited about growth. Whether you're an experienced orthodontist or a recent residency graduate, you'll have the opportunity to make an immediate impact while developing your clinical, leadership, and business skills.

Why St. Louis?

St. Louis gives you an incredible variety of things to do outside the office. Catch a Cardinals or Blues game. Spend the afternoon exploring Forest Park. Try a new restaurant in one of the city's distinct neighborhoods. Head to a concert, brewery, festival, or museum. Take the family to the St. Louis Zoo or The Magic House. Or simply enjoy one of the many parks, trails, and outdoor spaces throughout the region.

It's big enough to offer everything you'd expect from a major metropolitan area, professional sports, incredible restaurants, arts and culture, entertainment, outdoor recreation, and diverse neighborhoods, while still offering a lifestyle that feels approachable and attainable. And the best part? You don't have to choose between city life and the suburbs. Your primary practice location is in Clayton, one of the most desirable communities in the St. Louis region. Clayton combines an established residential community with a vibrant, walkable downtown filled with restaurants, boutiques, galleries, entertainment, and community events. For an orthodontist relocating to St. Louis, Clayton offers an especially compelling lifestyle: upscale without feeling isolated, suburban without giving up access to the city.

We're looking for someone who is:

• Clinically confident and committed to exceptional orthodontic care
• Driven, competitive, and achievement-oriented
• Comfortable working in a busy, established practice
• Passionate about building relationships with patients and families
• Flexible and committed to increasing access to care
• Interested in contributing to practice growth
• A strong communicator and team player
• Interested in developing into a future leader

At Amazing Smiles, you won't be asked to choose between clinical autonomy, professional growth, and a great lifestyle. You'll have an established patient base, an experienced support team, multiple locations, and the backing of Southern Orthodontic Partners, giving you the opportunity to focus on exceptional patient care while building the career you want.

Requirements:

• Full-time opportunity (4 days per week) that include rotating Fridays and occasional Saturdays as required.
• DDS/DMD from an accredited dental education program.
• Certificate of completion of residency from an accredited postgraduate Orthodontic program.
