Job Description

Part-Time Endodontist – Vista & SAN Diego, California

2 DAYS PER MONTH | 50% OF PRODUCTION | ESTABLISHED REFERRAL NETWORK

Gentle Dental is seeking a Part-Time Endodontist to provide specialty care in our Vista and Sorrento Valley (San Diego), California practices.

This is an ideal opportunity for an Endodontist looking to add a limited number of days to their existing schedule while benefiting from the patient flow, internal referral network, and operational support of an established multi-specialty dental organization.

With a commitment of just 2 days per month, you can focus on providing high-quality endodontic care while our teams support scheduling, patient coordination, and day-to-day practice operations.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • 50% of production
  • Only 2 days per month
  • Established patient base and internal referral network
  • Opportunity to provide care across two established San Diego County practices
  • Clinical autonomy to diagnose and treatment plan based on what is best for your patients
  • Experienced clinical and operational support teams
  • Collaborative network of General Dentists and Specialists
  • Malpractice insurance provided

Focus on Endodontics. We'll Handle the REST.

At Gentle Dental, we believe specialists should be able to spend their time focused on patient care.

Our General Dentists and established practices provide a built-in network for specialty referrals, while our local teams support scheduling, patient coordination, and practice operations.

You maintain the clinical autonomy to diagnose, treatment plan, and provide endodontic care based on each patient's individual needs, with the support of a broader dental network when collaboration is needed.
