What are the responsibilities and job description for the General Dentist position at Springs Dentistry?
General Dentist
Springs Dentistry
Colorado Springs, CO
Full-Time
Springs Dentistry is looking for a full-time General Dentist to join our established, patient-focused practice in Colorado Springs.
This is a strong opportunity for a dentist who wants more than a place to clock in and do dentistry. We are looking for someone who is hungry, growth-minded, clinically thoughtful, and interested in building something long term with a respected local practice.
Springs Dentistry has served the Colorado Springs community for over 30 years. Our team provides comprehensive care in a friendly, comfortable environment using advanced techniques and modern dental technology. The practice offers a broad clinical mix, including restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, emergency dentistry, laser dentistry, CEREC single-visit crowns, clear aligners, implant restorations, dentures, composite fillings, gum health, and preventive care.
Fulfilling and Productive Opportunity
This is an established associate dentist role with real patient flow, not a cold-start position.
The practice sees approximately 90 new patients per month across three doctors, creating strong opportunity for the right dentist to build relationships, diagnose comprehensive care, and grow production over time.
You will start with a focused clinical schedule and one to two columns. As your patient relationships, treatment planning, and production grow, the practice has the infrastructure to support expanded clinical flow, including additional assistant support.
The Right Fit
The right dentist is clinically balanced, coachable, motivated, and team-oriented.
We are not looking for someone who is overly aggressive in diagnosis. We are also not looking for someone so conservative that patients miss appropriate care. The best fit is a dentist who can diagnose clearly, communicate confidently, and recommend treatment that is clinically sound and patient-centered.
Newer dentists, experienced associates, and doctors several years into practice are all welcome to apply. Fit, work ethic, communication, and long-term mindset matter most.
