Dentist

Imagine waking up each day knowing that the work you do directly supports the health and readiness of the brave men and women serving in the U.S. military. As a General Dentist with Navy Medicine, you’ll be at the forefront of providing essential dental care to service members and their families, helping them maintain their oral health and ensuring they’re mission-ready at all times. Whether stationed in California, North Carolina, or Maryland, you'll be part of an elite team making a real difference in the lives of those who defend our country. This is your chance to combine your dental expertise with a deep sense of purpose, all while enjoying unparalleled benefits and career growth opportunities.



As a General Dentist in the Navy, your responsibilities will include diagnosing and treating a range of dental conditions, such as cavities, gum disease, and oral infections. You will perform cleanings, fillings, extractions, and other general procedures, while also educating patients on preventive care. Additionally, you will provide emergency dental services and contribute to the overall health and wellness of our military community, ensuring that service members remain in top physical and mental shape for their missions.



The U.S. Navy offers a competitive salary, with annual compensation ranging from $160,000 to $200,000. You will also receive a $150,000 sign-on bonus and $20,000 in specialty incentive pay. Navy Medicine provides comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and life insurance for you and your dependents, as well as paid specialty training in areas like Comprehensive Dentistry, Endodontics, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, and more. Additionally, the Navy offers an exceptional work-life balance, with generous housing options (stipends or free on-base housing), 30 days of paid time off annually, and all federal holidays off. There are also opportunities for CME allowance and 12 weeks of paid maternity leave.



Other benefits include a government retirement plan, 5% 401(k) match, Forever GI Bill education benefits (up to $200,000 in education assistance), and the ability to work in state-of-the-art dental facilities with excellent support staff. Your patients' care is fully covered, meaning you won’t have to deal with out-of-pocket expenses or insurance claims.
