Initial Daily Rate: $550–$700/day (based on skill set) → % of Collections

La Luxe Dental is a boutique, modern, spa-like private practice in Washington, DC (NoMa). We’re hiring a part-time Associate Dentist who wants to grow in a supportive private-practice environment—with real autonomy, mentorship, and the opportunity to help build a high-performing culture centered on Guest Experience.

Important Transparency (Please Read)

In the initial phase, this role will include temporary hygiene coverage as we stabilize our clinical schedule and staffing—while also diagnosing and completing treatment for patients you see (as schedule allows). This is a great fit for a dentist who can flex clinically, communicate confidently, and lead with ownership while building a larger long-term schedule.

What You’ll Do

• Provide comprehensive exams, diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient education

• Deliver high-quality restorative care with attention to detail and excellent clinical judgment

• Perform dentistry with a strong focus on comfort, communication, and trust

• Endodontics preferred (share your comfort level and, if available, case examples)

• Clear aligner familiarity a plus (Invisalign/CandidPro experience welcomed)

• Support hygiene temporarily as needed, with the expectation that you will identify treatment opportunities and support appropriate next steps for patient care

• Maintain thorough clinical notes and communicate clearly with the team

• Uphold our brand-standard Guest Experience: efficient flow, patients seated promptly, respectful and calm leadership throughout the day

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for an associate who brings:

• Ownership + leadership: proactive, dependable, takes initiative without being micromanaged

• Can-do attitude: resourceful, solution-oriented, positive demeanor

• Growth mindset: open to coaching/feedback and motivated to improve clinical skills and efficiency

• Strong communication: clear, confident patient conversations and strong team collaboration

• Endo interest/comfort: ideally enjoys endodontics; ability to show cases or discuss typical timing is a plus

• Comfort diagnosing comprehensive care (including implants, tooth replacement, removals, etc.—experience is a plus, mentorship/training available)

• Familiarity with elevated preventive tools is a plus (Perio Protect trays, Curodont/early cavity repair—training available)

Tech & Practice Environment

We invest in quality dentistry and modern workflows, including:

• CBCT

• iTero

• Shofu camera (photo documentation)

• Nomad

Compensation & Growth Path

• Daily rate: $550–$700/day (based on experience + endo/aligner comfort + speed/efficiency)

• Transition to % of collections
