Job Description


A high-production, modern practice with a clear pathway to partnership

A thriving, well-established dental practice in Santa Teresa, NM is seeking a motivated General Dentist to join the team on a permanent basis. With strong patient demand, modern technology, and real partnership potential, this role is perfect for a doctor who wants both clinical autonomy and long-term growth upside.

The ideal candidate approaches dentistry with a “partner-first” mindset, values efficiency and patient experience, and is excited to help grow an already successful clinic.

This practice offers a steady, established patient base and a balanced payor mix that supports strong, predictable earnings.
