Mentorship | Advanced Technology | Four-Day Workweek | Future Partnership Opportunity
Imagine a career where your patients become familiar faces, your work makes a lasting difference, and your future has room to grow.
What if your next opportunity offered more than a paycheck? What if you could practice comprehensive dentistry, develop your clinical skills, enjoy a four-day workweek, and potentially become a future practice owner?
Sonora Smiles, an established and growing family dental practice in beautiful Sonora, California, is seeking a motivated, personable Associate Dentist who wants to become part of something special.
We're not simply looking for someone to fill a position. We're looking for a dentist who loves what they do, values meaningful patient relationships, and wants to build a long-term future with a practice and community.
At Sonora Smiles, you'll join an experienced owner dentist and a positive, supportive team committed to delivering exceptional patient care. Our practice serves patients of all ages and offers a comprehensive approach to dentistry, combining modern technology with personalized treatment.
With five existing operatories and plans to expand to eight, we're creating exciting opportunities for clinical growth, increased production, and long-term success.
What makes this opportunity stand out?

Sonora Smiles isn't simply looking for an associate dentist. The long-term vision is to find someone who wants to grow with the practice and potentially become a future partner.
Imagine building a loyal patient following, developing your clinical and leadership skills, and eventually having the opportunity to take an ownership role in a practice you've helped grow.
For the right dentist, this could be the beginning of something much bigger than an associate position.
We're looking for a dentist who genuinely enjoys helping people, takes pride in delivering quality care, and wants to become an integral part of a practice's future.
Our ideal candidate:
New graduates are encouraged to apply! Whether you're just beginning your career or have years of experience, mentorship and professional development opportunities are available.

You spent years building a practice. You deserve more than just a paycheck from it. American Dental Companies (ADC) is a dental partnership organization based in Phoenix, Arizona — built specifically for independent and solo practice owners who want the backing of a larger organization without giving up what they've worked to create.
When you partner with ADC, we take the non-clinical aspect of your business off of your plate. Billing and collections, HR, insurance credentialing, compliance, marketing, and more — our central team handles it so you can focus on your patients and your clinical work.
But what sets ADC apart goes further than operations. Our partner dentists have the opportunity to invest in other practices across the ADC network and receive monthly profit distributions. That means your income isn't limited to what happens in your own operatories. You can build a retirement portfolio — built on dental, the industry you already know.
You keep your practice name. You keep your clinical autonomy. You keep your team. What you gain is the infrastructure, the support, and the path to long-term wealth that most solo dentists never get access to. If you're a practice owner who's ever felt like you're running a small business instead of practicing dentistry — or if you're thinking about what the next chapter looks like — we'd like to talk.
