Job Description

\n

\n

We’re Tend — Dental Done Differently.

\n

Tend was founded to make going to the dentist something people actually look forward to. We blend thoughtfully designed studios, top-tier clinical care, advanced technology, and a hospitality-driven mindset to create a dental experience that’s human, personalized, and exceptional from start to finish.

\n

Since launching in 2019, we’ve delivered care to over 100,000 patients across New York, Washington DC, Boston, Atlanta, and Nashville. With thousands of five-star reviews and over 650 passionate team members, Tend is one of the fastest-growing and highest-rated dental brands in the country — and we’re just getting started.

\n

Whether you’re delivering care in our studios or supporting our growth behind the scenes, every role at Tend contributes to reimagining the future of dental health — for patients and for the people who care for them.

\n

We’re growing fast — and we’re looking for values-driven, mission-aligned talent to grow with us.

\n

\n

\n

\n

At Tend, we do dentistry differently — without compromising on excellence or ambition. As an Associate Dentist at Tend, you’ll deliver best-in-class clinical care in a modern, thoughtfully designed studio. You’ll be busy from day one, treating a well-booked schedule of patients and full-scope operative cases with the support of an experienced clinical and operational team. Our model is built for driven dentists : those who want to grow clinically, take on complex cases, and be rewarded for high performance. You’ll be part of a collaborative, energized team that’s raising the bar for dentistry — and having fun doing it.

\n

We offer a daily guarantee and monthly bonus based on adjusted production. Tend Associate Dentists earn 30-35% of their adjusted production. You’ll receive transparency and support to help you thrive — no surprises, just opportunity.

\n

\n

What You’ll Do

\n \n

  • Deliver a full spectrum of high‑quality clinical services—from fillings, inlays / onlays, crowns, root canals, extractions, orthodontics (traditional braces & Invisalign®), TMJ injectables, and implants to cosmetic procedures like veneers, professional whitening, and emergency visits—leveraging Tend’s state‑of‑the‑art digital workflows and high‑throughput studio model

\n

  • Perform thorough exams, develop comprehensive treatment plans, and educate patients on optimal oral health and procedural choices
  • \n

  • Lead and manage multiple treatment rooms and maintain a dynamic, productive schedule—balancing hygiene checks, operative care, same‑day treatment, and emergency visits
  • \n

  • Drive production by proactively identifying and completing full treatment plans, optimizing chair time, and delivering care efficiently without sacrificing quality
  • \n

  • Lead and mentor dental assistants and collaborate closely with hygienists to ensure seamless patient care and clinical excellence
