You may not be actively looking. The right practice can change that.

We are an independent, principal-led practice with a reputation built over generations, looking for an associate who values high standards, long-term patient relationships and genuine clinical freedom.

You will have an established diary from day one, autonomy to treatment-plan around your patients, an open-door support from an experienced principal-led team and clinical freedom in alignment with our practice values and standards.

Four days per week from January 2027 - optional weekend sessions.

Our patient base is approximately 90% private — FPI and Denplan — 10% NHS contract (performer number required).

Dentistry@68 has cared for patients and families across Poole and the surrounding areas for more than 50 years

You will be supported by an experienced nursing, reception and management team, dedicated hygiene support, trusted clinicians and excellent laboratory partners.

• Emergency partner practice for the247dentist

Our central Poole location also offers convenient transport links and practice parking.

Who would thrive here?

An established private clinician looking for autonomy, an excellent patient base and room to develop their clinical interests.

Or a motivated mixed practitioner ready to transition into predominantly private dentistry with structured mentorship and genuine clinical support.

Interested, but not sure if it is the right fit?

We would be very happy to have an informal, confidential conversation before you apply. Come and meet the team, see the practice and get a feel for Dentistry@68.
