What are the responsibilities and job description for the Experienced Associate Dentist | Build a Career, Community & Long-Term Future in Southern Oregon position at Open Door Family Dentistry?
You probably didn’t become a dentist just to feel overworked, unsupported, or disconnected from the people around you.
Many experienced associates reach a point where they begin asking deeper questions:
- Is this the kind of practice environment I want long-term?
- Am I still growing?
- Do I actually feel supported?
- Is there a path toward ownership, leadership, or something more meaningful?
- Can I build a fulfilling life while still doing excellent dentistry?
At Open Door Dental Group, we believe exceptional dentistry is built by exceptional teams—not isolated providers.
We are a privately owned, owner-operated dental group in Southern Oregon looking for experienced dentists who want more than just another associate position.

- Collaborative clinical teams
- Proven operational systems
- Consistent mentorship and leadership support
- Partnership opportunities for aligned long-term doctors
Our associates average over $350,000 annually, with top-performing associates earning over $400,000.
But what matters most to us is not just production.
It’s building a place where great dentists can:
- Continue growing
- Build meaningful relationships
- Practice with confidence
- Mentor others

- Kind but accountable
