Associate General Dentist Opportunity

**ASSOCIATE GENERAL DENTIST OPPORTUNITY**

We are beginning to provide dental care to our community. We are looking for a General Dentist to provide delivery of high-quality dental treatment to a broad range of patient abilities and ages, including health promotion/maintenance, counseling and education, assessment, acute/chronic care, and consultation/collaboration with other health care professionals, and community resources. The focus will be on reducing barriers to care, examining, diagnosing, and developing treatment plans for infections and injuries of the teeth and mouth.  This clinic will be paired with our well-established community health center that has been a long-time provider of primary care and behavioral health services. It will be a rewarding opportunity for a doctor who is looking for clinical autonomy and enjoys working with an experienced staff.  Most of our practice will be focused on preventative and restorative work and extractions.
