Job description

Seeking an outstanding Associate Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon with strong interpersonal skills to join an established, full-scope Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery practice in the Greater Sacramento Area. High surgical volume, implant-focused practice, competitive compensation, and significant room for growth!

Job Description

Build surgical volume. Advance your career. Grow into full-arch surgery.

An established, high-volume Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery practice in the Greater Sacramento Area is seeking a skilled, motivated Associate Oral Surgeon to join its growing team.

This role is heavily focused on traditional oral surgery with consistent implant placement, while offering structured exposure to full-arch dental implant surgery (All-on-X) in a high-volume, well-supported clinical environment.

You will spend the majority of your time performing core oral surgery procedures-with implants as a routine part of your day-while gaining progressive, hands-on exposure to full-arch cases alongside experienced surgeons.

This position is ideal for surgeons who want strong surgical experience, predictable volume, and income stability, with the opportunity to grow into advanced implant and full-arch cases at a comfortable pace.

Not located in the Greater Sacramento Area? We still encourage you to apply. Relocation assistance and signing bonuses are available for the right candidate.

Compensation & Earning Potential

• $400,000-$1,000,000+ annually, based on experience, schedule, and case mix

• Strong base compensation driven by consistent traditional oral surgery volume

• Production-based bonuses tied to productivity and implant growth

• Reliable daily surgical schedule

• Upside tied to increased implant and full-arch participation

Your earnings scale with volume, efficiency, and clinical growth-not uncertainty.

Scope of Practice

This is not a full-arch-only role. The foundation of this position is traditional oral surgery, with implants as a core service and optional progression into full-arch surgery.

What You'll Do

• Perform high-volume oral surgery procedures, including extractions, alveoloplasty, and bone grafting

• Place single and multi-unit dental implants routinely

• Participate in full-arch (All-on-X) cases with increasing responsibility over time

• Maintain a strong mix of general oral surgery and implant procedures

• Participate in patient consultations for both oral surgery and implant cases, alongside Patient Advisors

• Collaborate with restorative doctors on implant and full-arch treatment planning

• Review CBCTs, surgical guides, and digital plans

• Complete accurate surgical documentation

Training, Support & Clinical Resources

• Structured onboarding focused on efficiency, volume, and workflow

• Mentorship from surgeons experienced in both traditional oral surgery and full-arch implants

• Exposure to full-arch cases without pressure or quotas

• Advanced implant education and surgical training available

• Opportunity to grow into complex cases when you're ready

Schedule & Structure

• Full-time or part-time options

• Monday-Friday, starting at 9:00 AM

• Consistent patient flow and surgical blocks

• Employment or contractor structure available, as legally appropriate

• No non-compete or restrictive covenants

What Success Looks Like

• Efficient, safe execution of high-volume oral surgery

• Strong implant placement outcomes

• Clear communication with patients and staff

• Collaboration without ego

• Interest in growing clinical skills without being forced into subspecialization

Qualifications & Requirements

• DDS or DMD from a U.S.-accredited dental school

• Completion of a U.S. oral and maxillofacial surgery training program

• Active, unrestricted California dental license or eligibility for licensure

• DEA registration

• ACLS & BLS certification

• Malpractice coverage (or ability to obtain)

• Implant interest required; full-arch experience not required

Why Join Our Practice?

• High-volume traditional oral surgery

• Implants as a daily part of practice

• Optional, supported exposure to full-arch surgery

• Strong systems, staff, and patient flow

• Competitive compensation with significant earning potential

• Long-term stability with real growth opportunities
