Associate Dentist - Orange Grove Family Dentistry - Orange, CA

We’re a private, owner-operated practice in North Orange County about to nearly double in size — and we’re looking for an associate dentist who wants to grow with us. This isn’t a revolving door. We’re looking for someone who wants to build their skills, treat patients they actually get to know, and be part of a team that has each other’s backs. If you’re looking for a long-term home where you’re mentored, supported, and trusted with real clinical autonomy as you grow — keep reading. What Makes This Different Owner-doctor mentorship. You’ll work alongside me (not a regional manager). I’ll help you develop clinically and build confidence with cases you haven’t seen before. We’re expanding — big. We’re remodeling from 6 operatories to 11 in the next 1–2 months. This is a ground-floor opportunity to grow into a bigger practice, not inherit someone else’s ceiling. Patients are here (and more are coming). We have an established, growing patient base that’s driving this expansion. You won’t sit around waiting for the schedule to fill. Technology that lets you do same-day dentistry. In-office CEREC milling, digital workflow, and brand-new operatories. You’ll learn to use tools most associates don’t touch for years. A real team. 3 full-time hygienists, experienced assistants, and a front office that actually communicates. No drama, no silos. No corporate overhead. Private practice means decisions get made by the people who treat the patients. Schedule Monday & Tuesday: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM Wednesday & Thursday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM One Friday per month: 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM Compensation Competitive daily guarantee while you ramp up, plus a percentage of monthly net production. The structure is designed so you bonus every month as you build your patient base. Specific numbers discussed during the interview.
