Associate Dentist | No Gimmicks, Just Real Support

Associate Dentist – Clear Lakes Dental | No Gimmicks, Just Real Support

Let’s skip the fluff.

At Clear Lakes Dental, we’re reimagining the associate dentist experience—one that’s transparent, growth-focused, and built around real support. No bait-and-switch. No corporate nonsense.

Compensation & Perks (Real Talk)

• Guaranteed base salary of $180,000
  We just start higher—because you deserve it.
• OR 30% of collections (whichever is greater)
  And it increases 2% annually, up to 40%. That’s real, long-term earning potential.
• No restrictive covenants / non-competes
  We believe in keeping you here because you want to stay—not because you’re stuck.
• $2,000 CE allowance (paid separately from salary)
  Many offices deduct CE from your earnings—we don’t. Plus, in-house CPR, HIPAA, and OSHA training is covered.
• Health Insurance & 401(k) starting after 3 months
  Not 12. Not “someday.” We value you from the start.
• Malpractice insurance provided
• Holidays & PTO
  Work-life balance is a priority.
