Job Description
A COLLOBOARATIVE MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO PROVIDING DENTOFACIAL ORTHOPEDIC AND ORTHODONTIC CARE
About Rebis
Rebis is a multidisciplinary sleep wellness center dedicated to transforming sleep health and restoring overall wellness. Our multidisciplinary model integrates sleep medicine, airway dentistry and functional medicine by implementing root cause diagnostics, and treatment pathways into a unified healing experience.
Our mission is to restore and enhance individual healing by optimizing sleep health through a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach rooted in connection, integrity, and compassion.
Our vision is to become the nation’s leading multidisciplinary center for sleep wellness, creating a comprehensive ecosystem of healing that empowers individuals to thrive.
At the heart of Rebis is a simple commitment:
Every person who interacts with us should feel Loved, Heard, and Safe.
The Role
Rebis is looking for a Part Time or Per Diem orthodontist to work along side our sleep and airway dentistry team to assist with onsite orthodontic care, including treatment planning and orthodontic implementation with bracket and wires and clear aligners solutions.
Onsite time investment is anticipated to be be one day per week rotating between each of our locations weekly.
Why This Role Exists
Patients don’t struggle with sleep and airway issues because they lack appliances.
They Struggle Because
- the root cause isn’t identified
- care is fragmented
- no one is connecting structure, airway, and physiology
Rebis was built to solve that.
We operate a multidisciplinary airway and sleep model, integrating:
- Sleep Medicine
- Airway Dentistry
- Orthodontics
- Functional and root-cause care
You are the craniofacial and structural expert inside that system.
The Opportunity
You won’t be building this alone.
You’ll be trained and mentored by nationally recognized leaders:
- Kevin Boyd, DDS, MSc — Pediatric Airway Expert
- David McCarty, MD — Sleep Medicine
This is a rare opportunity to develop into a leader in airway-focused orthodontics within a true multidisciplinary model.
What You’ll Actually Do
You won’t just “run ortho cases.”
You Will
- Diagnose craniofacial contributors to airway dysfunction
- Build airway-focused treatment plans (not cosmetic-first plans)
- Lead patients into palatal expansion, MARPE, and structural interventions
- Collaborate daily with sleep medicine, airway dentistry, and care teams
- Help patients understand why treatment matters—and move forward
You Are Responsible for Helping Patients Go From
Confusion → Clarity → Treatment → Healing
What Makes This Role Different
- You work inside a fully integrated sleep and airway model
- You don’t rely on referrals—you are part of the care pathway
- You treat function first, aesthetics second
- You collaborate across disciplines daily
- You are measured on patient progression and outcomes—not just cases started
What You’ll Own
- Airway and craniofacial evaluation and diagnosis
- Airway-focused orthodontic treatment planning
- Palatal expansion and MARPE cases
- Multidisciplinary care coordination
- Patient education and case acceptance
- Contribution to treatment starts and healing outcomes
Our Clinical Model
We operate on a root-cause, systems-based philosophy of care.
This Means
- We identify why dysfunction exists—not just what it looks like
- We connect airway, sleep, craniofacial development, and systemic health
- We build integrated treatment plans across specialties
- We focus on helping patients heal—not just manage symptoms
What Success Looks Like
A High-performing Airway Orthodontist
- Thinks beyond alignment → focuses on airway and function
- Explains treatment clearly and confidently
- Helps patients move forward—not delay
- Collaborates seamlessly across specialties
- Contributes to strong treatment conversion and outcomes
Who Thrives Here
You’ll Thrive If You
- Are genuinely interested in airway and functional orthodontics
- Think in systems—not isolated problems
- Enjoy educating patients and guiding decisions
- Want to grow into a top-tier airway clinician
- Are comfortable being part of a performance-driven, outcome-focused environment
You May Struggle If You
- Prefer traditional, cosmetic-focused orthodontics
- Want to operate independently without collaboration
- Avoid patient education and treatment conversations
- Are not interested in airway or multidisciplinary care

- DDS/DMD with completion of Orthodontic Residency
- Eligible for or Colorado licensure

Coordinate with sleep medicine, airway dentistry, and other care teams while educating patients and supporting treatment progression and outcomes.
