Job Description
Refresh Valley Dental is a private dental practice in Northampton, MA, and we're looking to hire a second associate dentist! Are you tired of working in an office where the equipment is falling apart? Do you feel pressured to recommend treatment you don't believe in? Do you hate working weekends? Are you considering trying something new? At Refresh Valley Dental, we want our office to be a refreshingly positive space in the dental world. Our practice mission is to help people be healthy, eat the foods they want, and smile with confidence. Our core values are compassion, collaboration, and growth. Our team is hard working, weird, and absolutely a blast to be around. The office is located in Northampton, Massachusetts - a college town with plenty of good restaurants, galleries, cafes, and bookstores, and a building music scene. The office was built in 2021 in a relatively new building with lots of big windows. We have new and modern equipment available including an intraoral scanner, CBCT, surgical piezo, and implant motor. It's a good place to be. We are mostly looking for a full time dentist, but part time will also be considered. New dentists will have an introductory period with a $800 daily minimum. After that, they will be paid 35% adjusted production minus labs and implant parts, and can join our health insurance plan. They will also be treated at cost at the office for any procedures we are able to do. Associate dentists will have up to $2000 annual continuing education reimbursement for approved courses as well. While partnership is not guaranteed, our current dentist owner is open to sweat equity in the future. To help minimize restrictions on our treatment, and maximize provider compensation, we are only in network with two PPO plans, and may drop both in the next few years if growth continues. We do not accept Mass Health and have no plans to. The current dentists do not do molar endodontics, rarely do aligners, and dislike both pediatric dentistry and dentures, so those procedures could easily be in-house referred to a new associate who was interested. The owner dentist is also trained in basic implants through all-on-x cases, surgical extractions including impacted cases, and IV sedation, and would be happy to mentor. One of our dentists will be out for awhile in the summer/fall, so that would be the ideal time to start, but we are flexible. While excited to serve the whole community, we have a special interest in making our queer patients feel comfortable and respected. We also have quite a few patients who have dental anxiety that has prevented them from addressing their dental health for years. We offer them patience, understanding, and a non-judgmental environment, so they can finally get the work done that they need. We also have a special interest in food security, and donate enough to the Northampton Survival Center to feed 14 families every month. While we understand this might not be the ideal environment for everyone, we're hoping that the right dentist will feel right at home here. Ideally, the dentist for this job will be a friendly, competent individual, who is eager to continue growing professionally. New graduates are encouraged to apply. A Massachusetts dental license and CPR certification will be needed before starting. Send an email to aurora@refreshvalleydental.com with your resume if you're interested. Take care,
