Job Description

Are you a passionate Paediatric Dentist who loves making a difference in children’s lives? We are seeking a compassionate and skilled individual to join our growing dental team at Smile Design by Ash in Chigwell.

This is an exciting opportunity for a dentist who is passionate about improving children's oral health outcomes and creating positive dental experiences that encourage lifelong healthy habits.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Supporting anxious or nervous patients with a gentle, compassionate approach
• Carrying out a wide range of treatments including fissure sealants, fillings, pulpotomies, stainless steel crowns, and extractions
• Promoting positive oral health habits through education and engaging communication with patients and parents
• Working collaboratively with general dentists, hygienists, therapists, and other healthcare professionals to provide an outstanding patient journey from start to finish

Why Join Us?

• By becoming part of PortmanDentex, you’ll join a 360+ practice network predominantly focused on private dentistry. You’ll benefit from being connected to a large community of like-minded clinicians, while enjoying the feel and autonomy of your local practice.
