Join an established Auburn endodontic practice serving patients and referring dentists across East Alabama. The team combines high magnification, sophisticated imaging, and a wide scope of tooth-saving care—including complex cases that extend beyond routine root canal therapy.

Whether you’re an experienced Endodontist or nearing the end of residency, you’ll have room to contribute, access mentorship and peer support, and build a long-term future with a clear path to partnership.

The practice prioritizes same-day evaluations and efficient, tailored treatment plans, with a focus on relieving pain and preserving natural teeth. Its collaborative relationships with referring dentists help patients access focused specialty care across the region.

The clinical scope includes root canal therapy, retreatment, cracked teeth, emergency treatment, pulp therapies, and repair of perforations and resorption. High magnification, CBCT imaging, and digital radiography support careful diagnosis and treatment planning.

A Strong Clinical Foundation

Case variety: Treat routine and complex cases across root canal therapy, retreatment, cracked teeth, emergency care, pulp therapies, and resorption or perforation repair.

Mentorship and peer support: Newer doctors can access mentorship and experienced colleagues as they become part of the practice.
