Associate Dentist- Private Practice

Job description

Associate Dentist – Independent Practice with Sign-On Bonus & CE Allowance Location: Mount Pleasant, Texas Status: Full-Time / 4 days per week Compensation & Benefits: $15,000/Month Guarantee + 30% of Adjusted Production Sign-On Bonus Why You’ll Love Working Here At Hometown Dental in Mount Pleasant, you’ll join a growing organization built on a simple mission: restore the standard of care for patients in Texas communities that deserve better. Dr. Jorden Mortensen leads with high-integrity leadership and a genuine passion for bringing modern, comprehensive dentistry to towns that have often gone without it. You’ll find a culture rooted in positive energy, extreme ownership, and teamwork, where your clinical judgment is trusted, and your work is valued. Behind the scenes, the practice runs on clear systems rather than guesswork. Daily, weekly, and monthly checklists keep the team aligned and accountable, so the front desk, assistants, and hygiene team can focus on keeping your schedule full and your day running smoothly. You won’t need to manage the operations — you’ll be supported by a team that takes ownership of theirs, so you can focus on the dentistry. Mentorship here is practical and ongoing. New associates start with a structured onboarding curriculum covering treatment presentation, patient communication, and clinical protocols, followed by biweekly virtual check-ins and hands-on mentorship as needed. Dr. Mortensen is happy to invest in growing your skills in molar endo, implants, or Invisalign, and the practice provides a generous CE allowance to help you close any skill gaps on your own terms. This is a stable, long-term opportunity with real room to grow. As you build tenure with the practice, you’ll have access to a tiered, profit-sharing compensation plan that rewards increased production with a higher percentage — on top of an already competitive guarantee. Dr. Mortensen is actively expanding across rural and small-town Texas, and associates who prove themselves become long-term, trusted partners in that growth. Mount Pleasant is the county seat of Titus County and serves as the hub of a five-county region in the Piney Woods of Northeast Texas, home to roughly 16,000 residents in town and over 30,000 across the county. You’ll get a small-town pace of life without giving up amenities — a walkable Main Street downtown, the Whatley Center for the Performing Arts, and easy access to Lake Bob Sandlin State Park for fishing and boating. Positioned along I-30, US-271, and US-67, it’s an easy drive to larger East Texas cities while still being a true community where you’ll know your patients by name. Our Core Values - Positive Energy – We bring good energy to every interaction, with teammates and patients alike. The doctor sets the tone for the entire office, and that tone is steady and upbeat. - Extreme Ownership – We take personal responsibility for everything within our control. No blaming, no excuses — just action and accountability. - Hard Work – If a patient needs same-day treatment, we do everything we can to make it happen. We show up ready to help, even when it’s inconvenient. - Clear Communication – Whether it’s a clinical conversation with a patient or logistical coordination with the team, we believe in transparency and clarity. - Adaptability – In a growing practice, flexibility is essential. We adjust, pivot, and figure things out, always with the patient’s best interest in mind. What You’ll Do - Deliver comprehensive general dentistry, including restorative treatment, extractions, and removable prosthodontics. - Confidently diagnose and present same-day treatment plans to patients. - Communicate clearly with patients and the team to ensure continuity of care. - Practice with a high degree of clinical autonomy, supported by a trained team. - Participate in ongoing mentorship to continue growing surgical, endodontic, and implant skills. - Build lasting relationships with a loyal, established patient base. Compensation & Benefits - Compensation: Paid on adjusted production (30%) or the monthly guarantee, whichever is greater. - Monthly Guarantee: $15,000/month. - Sign-On Bonus. - CE Allowance - Health Insurance Stipend - 401(k): Up to 4% match. - PTO: Two weeks annually. - Lab fees covered (excluding Invisalign lab fees and implant parts). Why This Job Stands Out - This opportunity offers highly competitive, above-market pay with a $15,000/month guarantee against 30% of adjusted production. As you build tenure, a tiered profit-sharing plan increases your percentage the more you produce. It’s a compensation structure built to reward associates who want to grow. - You’ll have real clinical autonomy to practice comprehensive dentistry the way you were trained to. There’s no corporate mandate dictating which systems or materials to use — only a shared commitment to quality. You’ll be trusted to make sound clinical decisions and supported in doing so. - Mentorship here is hands-on and genuinely invested. Dr. Mortensen offers biweekly check-ins, in-person support when you need it, and a structured onboarding curriculum to set you up for success. Combined with a CE allowance, you’ll have real support to grow into procedures you haven’t mastered yet. - The culture is built on positive energy, ownership, and clear communication, and it’s reinforced through consistent systems rather than left to chance. The team runs on daily and weekly checklists that keep everyone accountable. You’ll walk into an office that already knows how to support a doctor well. - Mount Pleasant offers small-town connection with regional-hub amenities, from a historic Main Street to nearby lakes and easy highway access. You’ll build real relationships with the patients you treat. It’s the kind of community where your work is noticed and appreciated. Who We’re Looking For Someone who is: - Positive and steady — brings a consistent, can-do energy to the team and patients every day, regardless of what’s happening outside the office. - Confident and competent in restorative, surgical, and removable procedures, capable of operating with a high degree of independence. - A clear, proactive communicator who keeps patients and teammates aligned and informed. - Committed to the community for the long term rather than treating it as a short-term stepping stone. - Growth-minded, using CE opportunities to expand skills and confidence over time. - Willing to take extreme ownership — someone who solves problems rather than placing blame.
