Dentistry, Dentist - PRN

At Tend, we’re doing dental differently — replacing the obstacles of traditional dental care with hospitality, comprehensive diagnostics, and moments of Surprise and Delight. For many of our members, we’re the first practice where they’ve felt genuinely at ease about their oral health. Our PRN Associate Dentists are an essential part of how we deliver on that promise. When you pick up shifts at Tend, you step into a modern, fully equipped studio with a warm, experienced team already in place. You’ll treat a full scope of operative, restorative, and cosmetic procedures — diagnosing the whole person and helping members leave informed, respected, and in control of their care.

This is a PRN (per diem) role. You’ll pick up shifts as needed and are paid a day rate of $900–$1,000. Deliver a full spectrum of high-quality clinical services — including restorative care such as inlays/onlays, crowns, veneers, endodontics, extractions, implants, and cosmetic dentistry — within tend’s modern, digitally enabled studio environment

Treat a dynamic mix of cases that go beyond basic dentistry, with opportunities to perform comprehensive, esthetic, and function-driven care

Lead comprehensive exams that diagnose the whole person — every member leaves aware of their dental conditions and potential solutions in a way that is clear, confident, and efficient

Develop thoughtful, member-centered treatment plans grounded in legitimate clinical findings and honest risk assessment, driving both oral health outcomes and case acceptance

Clear Aligner & Sleep Therapy

Identify and address malocclusion, occlusal wear, fracture lines, and sleep-disordered breathing early — using our tested frameworks to educate members compassionately and help them avoid more invasive outcomes

Drive adoption and growth of clear aligner treatment, from diagnosis through case planning, bonding, and follow-up care

Evaluate and treat members for sleep-disordered breathing, incorporating sleep medicine solutions into treatment planning where appropriate

Manage a dynamic, productive schedule — balancing operative procedures, hygiene checks, aligner starts, and same-day treatment opportunities

Partner with studio teams to build efficient and productive shifts — reviewing schedules in advance, engaging in daily huddles, and offering same-day care when possible

Drive production through proactive diagnosis, completion of full treatment plans, and efficient use of chair time — without compromising quality of care

Partner closely with dental assistants, hygienists, and studio leadership to deliver coordinated, high-quality care

Tend to Others: You put members and teammates first — delivering outstanding care and a genuinely human experience, even in a fast-paced per diem environment. As a PRN provider, you step into new studios with confidence, make sound decisions independently, and hold yourself to the same standard you’d expect from anyone on your team.

Savor the Ride: You bring positive energy into every shift — celebrating the work, staying resilient through the unexpected, and making the team better just by being there.

Rooted in Growth: You’re always learning — whether that’s refining your technique, deepening your knowledge of aligner therapy, or absorbing a new workflow in a studio you’ve never worked in before.

Lead with Clinical Judgment: You make sound clinical decisions grounded in data, evidence, and patient needs. In a per diem context, that means being decisive and self-directed without sacrificing thoroughness or quality.

Adapt and Execute: You can read a room, integrate quickly into a new studio environment, and deliver excellent care regardless of whether it’s your first or fiftieth shift with a given team.
