Job Description

  • Endodontist - Associate with Partnership Path
  • Location: Tupelo, Mississippi
  • Practice: Northeast Endodontics
  • Employment Type: Full-time

Northeast Endodontics is an established, referral-driven endodontic practice that has served the Tupelo community for more than 20 years. This opportunity supports the addition of a second endodontist in a high-demand, two-doctor model where patient access is currently limited by doctor capacity alone.

With a consistently full schedule and a strong patient backlog, the incoming associate will enjoy immediate demand with the clinical and administrative support to quickly fill their desired schedule.

This role is eligible for Specialized Dental Partners’ Loan Relief Program, which is designed to provide meaningful debt relief to doctors serving select high-need markets. After applying, you will receive a follow-up email with additional details about the program, along with a short eligibility form.

If you’re open to exploring this opportunity or learning more about our loan forgiveness program, apply below or reach out to careers@specializeddental.com to schedule a quick, confidential conversation.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Immediate Demand to Fill Your Schedule

  • You step into a full referral pipeline from day one, with an established backlog and consistent patient flow.
  • Proven, referral-driven practice
  • The practice has deep, long-standing relationships with local general dentists and a team experienced in supporting endodontic care.

High Clinical Autonomy

Maintain full control over your techniques, materials, and treatment approach, supported by an experienced operational and administrative team.

Defined Path to Partnership

  • Join with autonomy today and a clear runway toward ownership as capacity and access to care expand in this market.
