The Opportunity:

Are you an experienced, high-caliber General Dentist who is ready to step away from the corporate "assembly line" and move into a prestigious, high-producing private practice with a clear, defined path to equity buy-in and full ownership?

Paradise Valley Smiles, a premier clinical partner of American Dental Companies (ADC), is seeking an entrepreneurial Associate Dentist to join our thriving, multi-doctor practice in Phoenix, Arizona. Operating out of a beautifully designed, high-tech 8-operatory facility, this practice has spent over 30 years cultivating an exceptionally loyal patient base of 5,000+ happy patients.

This role is a direct mentorship and succession opportunity. You will be working alongside our senior clinical leader, Dr. Mark Brannon, DDS, who has spent 40+ years delivering world-class care. Dr. Brannon is looking for a committed, business-minded clinical partner who wants to plant long-term roots, help grow the practice's modern footprint, and transition into ownership.

The DPO Advantage – Secure and Guaranteed Earning Potential:

Many associate roles promise high earnings but fall short due to broken billing departments and uncollected revenue. Because Paradise Valley Smiles is backed by American Dental Companies (ADC), all non-clinical administrative burdens (marketing, payroll, legal compliance, and insurance cycle management) are handled by elite centralized experts.

ADC boasts an unprecedented 98% to 100% historical collections rating network-wide. Your compensation is tied directly to a highly lucrative percentage of collections, meaning you are virtually guaranteed to get paid on 100% of the production you execute. Historical associates in our system easily earn $200,000 to $300,000+ in their first years, with exponential upside as you drive practice growth.

Clinical Environment & Philosophy:

We practice comprehensive, patient-centered dentistry with an emphasis on the mouth-body health connection. Our 8-op facility is fully optimized with cutting-edge technology, including advanced intraoral imaging, digital radiography, modern sterilization centers, and advanced cosmetic/implant diagnostic systems. We have a remarkably tight-knit, veteran staff (several of our team members have worked together for over 20 years!), resulting in a calm, stress-free clinical environment with zero internal drama.

Key Clinical Responsibilities:

• Deliver comprehensive general dentistry, including advanced preventative, restorative, cosmetic (Invisalign), and implant-supported therapies.

• Formulate robust, comprehensive treatment plans while focusing deeply on patient education, trust, and long-term retention.

• Provide compassionate, seamless emergency care through optimized same-day appointment blocks.

• Partner with the front-office and hygiene teams to maintain a highly fluid, efficient 8-operatory schedule.

• Actively collaborate on strategic business growth initiatives to expand the local market share.

Required Qualifications:

• Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) or Doctor of Medical Dentistry (DMD) from an accredited program.

• Active, unrestricted Arizona Dental License in good standing.

• Minimum of 5+ years of active clinical experience in a private or high-end group practice setting.

• Proven proficiency across advanced general procedures (Cosmetic bonding, crowns/bridges, endodontics, and basic oral surgery).

• Strong entrepreneurial maturity with an explicit desire for future practice ownership/equity buy-in.

What We Offer:

• Top-tier earnings based on a highly secure percentage of collections ($200k - $300k+ average baseline).

• Transparent accounting backed by ADC's 98%-100% collections infrastructure.

• Comprehensive healthcare benefits package through the ADC corporate network.

• Mentorship from a 40-year veteran practitioner and a seamless path to full practice buy-in.

• A stable, premium Monday-Thursday schedule (No late nights, no weekend grinds).
