The Blue Ridge Free Dental Clinic is seeking a Dental Director for its well-regarded nonprofit free dental clinic in the Western North Carolina mountains. Located in Cashiers, NC, the Blue Ridge Free Dental Clinic's mission is to deliver high-quality emergency, restorative, and preventative dental care to people who cannot otherwise afford these critically needed services. We restore lives-one tooth at a time. Being a part of our Clinic will allow for a direct impact into the lives of people that need it most.
We offer a competitive salary, comprehensive health benefits package, flexible scheduling, and a supportive and collaborative work environment.
Practice management, financial oversight, and administrative functions are typically the responsibility of the dentist(s) in a private practice setting. At our Clinic, administrative functions are divided among the Executive Director, Board of Directors, and Clinical Director-not the Dental Director !
History
For nearly 20 years, the Clinic has developed best practices that contribute to patient wellness, oral health equity, operational efficiencies, and a decrease in dental disease in five western North Carolina counties. Since its beginning, the Clinic has performed over 70,000 procedures over 23,000 patient visits with a value exceeding $11 million dollars. No other dental care provider in WNC offers comprehensive care-including emergency, restorative and preventative services-at absolutely no cost to the patient. While most of the patients who come to the Blue Ridge Free Dental Clinic are in pain with an urgent need, our comprehensive model of care goes far beyond emergency extractions. Currently, one per diem Staff Dentist, 20 volunteer dentists, one registered dental hygienist, and three dental assistants restore hundreds of smiles each year. This team is also active in our schools and community. They provide education, dental screenings, and fluoride treatments to students with a goal to end the generational cycle of poor oral health that exists in our mountain communities.
Position Summary
Dental Director is responsible for administering, maintaining, and expanding a program of emergency, restorative, and preventive dental care in a nonprofit, free dental clinic setting. The Dental Director supervises up to 20 volunteer dentists and works with the support of the dental staff of the Clinic, including a Clinical Director, Program Director, Staff Dentist, and Executive Director.
