Risas Dental and Braces — Specialty Care That Changes Lives

Full-Time or Part-Time

Do the endodontics you love—without the headache of building a practice. We keep your schedule full; you focus on saving teeth and changing lives.

Risas Dental and Braces has made quality, affordable dental care accessible since 2011, and today we serve large, diverse communities across nearly 30 locations in Arizona and Colorado. We’re looking for a skilled, compassionate Endodontist to deliver the full scope of endodontic care to patients who truly need it—backed by modern technology and a steady stream of internal referrals.

Why You’ll Love It Here

Modern tools. Well-equipped operatories with surgical operating microscopes and CBCT imaging.

Flexibility. Full-time or part-time schedules to fit your life, with the option to work across nearby locations.

Meaningful impact. Bring specialty care to underserved communities—your skill directly expands access for people who need it most.

Competitive pay. Percentage of production or a guaranteed daily rate, plus benefits for eligible team members.

What You’ll Do

  • Perform the full scope of endodontic care—root canal therapy on anterior, premolar, and molar teeth, retreatments, and surgical endodontics (apicoectomies).
  • Diagnose and manage endodontic pain, dental trauma, and emergencies with confident clinical judgment.
  • Use advanced technology—dental microscope, CBCT, digital radiography, and rotary/reciprocating NiTi systems.
  • Partner with our general dentists and specialists on referrals and coordinated, patient-first care.

What We’re Looking For

  • DDS or DMD plus a certificate or Master’s in Endodontics from a CODA-accredited program.
  • Active Arizona dental license and endodontic specialty eligibility (or eligible and willing to obtain).
  • Current DEA registration and BLS/CPR certification.
  • A patient-first mindset and genuine care for the diverse communities we serve—bilingual English/Spanish is a plus, not required.
  • New graduates from accredited endodontic programs are encouraged to apply.
