Job Description
- Cool, Caring Associate Dentist Wanted... Adults Only, Great Patients, Zero Drama (Goodyear, AZ)
- Millennium Dental Arts | Goodyear, AZ
- Compensation: Competitive Associate Compensation
- Estimated Earning Potential: $200,000–$250,000 annually based on production
- Employment Type: Full-Time - 4 Days Per Week
- Position: Experienced Associate Dentist (DDS/DMD)
- Hello...
- First, thanks for taking the time to read this.
- And more importantly...
- Thanks for becoming a dentist.
It takes years of school, countless hours of studying, and a tremendous amount of dedication (and probably a mountain of student loans) to get where you are today.
Our team genuinely appreciates what dentists do because we couldn't care for our patients without someone who loves helping people.
- Maybe we're exactly what you've been looking for...
- A Little About Us...
- Millennium Dental Arts is a modern, well-established private practice that's been serving Goodyear since 2005.
About two-thirds of our patients are fee-for-service, and the remainder are primarily Delta Premier. That means we don't spend our days racing from operatory to operatory trying to make insurance companies happy.
- Instead, we spend our time taking care of patients.
- One thing that makes us different...
- We're an adults-only practice.
- That means no busy pediatric schedules, no screaming toddlers, and no running between hygiene checks for kids.
- Our patients are primarily adults and retirees who value quality dentistry, trust their dentist, appreciate good communication, and are willing to invest in their oral health.
- Many have been with us for years.
- They're wonderful people.
- The Schedule - Full-Time Means 4 Days Here
- We're looking for someone who wants to become part of our practice for the long haul.
- Full-time at our practice is four days per week - not five.
- Ideally, your regular schedule would include Mondays and Fridays, plus two additional weekdays.
You'll have the stability and earning potential of a full-time position while maintaining a four-day clinical schedule.
