Job description

Are you a confident and patient-focused Dentist looking for an exciting opportunity to join an established private practice with a strong flow of new patients and excellent growth potential?

At Crescent Lodge Dental Practice in Clapham, we're looking for an enthusiastic Associate Dentist to join our experienced and close-knit clinical team. This is an exciting opportunity for a clinician who takes pride in delivering exceptional patient care, enjoys working collaboratively and is keen to develop their clinical career within a modern, digitally focused practice.

With an established patient base, a consistent flow of new patients and sought-after Saturday appointments, you'll have the opportunity to build a rewarding and productive diary.

Crescent Lodge is an established eight-surgery private practice with a strong reputation for patient care and a collaborative clinical environment. You'll join a team of experienced Dentists, supported by qualified and registered dental nurses, Hygienists and a dedicated Treatment Coordinator.

Our practice is fully digitally equipped, with modern technology and a team that values clinical collaboration, shared knowledge and providing patients with the best possible treatment options.

What you can expect:

• An established patient base with a strong flow of new patients.
• A supportive and close-knit clinical team that puts patients first.
• Fully digital facilities, including OPG and CT scanners.
• Access to a microscope and materials to suit your clinical preferences.
• A dedicated, qualified dental nurse to work alongside you.
• Opportunities to collaborate and refer internally to experienced clinicians.
• A practice that values going above and beyond for every patient.

The Opportunity

We're looking for an experienced and confident General Dentist to join our team, with the ability to recognise and manage emergency appointments while providing high-quality, patient-centred care.

This role is ideal for a clinician who is passionate about general dentistry, takes a proactive approach to patient care and enjoys working in a busy, supportive practice. Experience with clear aligners would be welcomed, alongside a strong foundation in general dentistry. No specialist qualifications are required.

You'll benefit from a combination of established patients, new patient appointments and emergency demand. Crescent Lodge welcomes approximately 150-170 new patients each month, and we're looking for a Dentist who can support the team in caring for these patients and helping them access the treatment they need.

Saturday appointments are particularly sought after, with patients regularly contacting the practice on the day to request emergency appointments. We welcome clinicians at different stages of their careers. While experience is valued, we're equally interested in someone who is confident in their approach, open to learning from experienced colleagues and committed to delivering excellent patient care.

Working Hours

The role offers a varied working pattern across weekdays and Saturdays:

• Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: 2:00pm - 8:00pm.
• Two Saturdays per month: 9:00am - 4:30pm, working alternate Saturdays to the other Dentist.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for a Dentist who:

• Is confident in delivering general dentistry and managing emergency appointments.
• Takes pride in providing exceptional patient care and going the extra mile.
• Has a positive, team-focused approach and enjoys working collaboratively.
• Is comfortable working in a digitally focused practice.
• Can discuss treatment options with patients clearly and confidently.
• Is open to learning from and collaborating with experienced clinicians.
• Has experience with clear aligners, or an interest in developing this skill.
• Shares our commitment to a patient-centred approach.

If you're looking for an opportunity to join an established private practice with a strong flow of patients, a supportive team and modern clinical facilities, we'd love to hear from you.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of the Crescent Lodge team, build a rewarding patient diary and make a meaningful difference to the patients you care for.
