Job description

Oral Surgeon

Part-Time | Dental Practice | Tinley Park, IL

Posted by Truepear on behalf of our client

Truepear is partnering with North Creek Dental Care, a well-established solo practice in Tinley Park, IL, to find an experienced Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon to join their team on a part-time basis (1 day/week), replacing their current specialist who is departing to start their own practice. This is an excellent opportunity for a surgeon looking for a steady, well-referred caseload with genuine autonomy and flexibility.

A qualified Prosthodontist with relevant surgical experience may also be considered for this role.

About the Opportunity

• 1099 independent contractor position
• Approximately 1 day per week, with flexibility to grow based on demand
• Solo-handled scope of care — you'll be the practice's dedicated oral surgery specialist
• Steady, established referral base: 4 active referring GPs generating roughly 20 surgical cases per month
• 100% referred-in caseload (no walk-in reliance)
• Fee-for-service practice — no PPO/insurance mix to navigate
• Surgical operatory and sedation setup already in place

What You'll Handle

• Extractions and wisdom teeth removal
• Implant placement
• IV sedation / general anesthesia
• Orthognathic and facial trauma cases are not required for this role

Compensation

• 40% of adjusted production

Why You'll Love It Here

• A single-office practice with true autonomy — no DSO-style systemization
• A team that has employed a surgical specialist for 6 years and understands how to support one well
• Trained surgical assistants already in place
• A genuine patient-first culture
• Very limited non-compete restrictions
• Chicago-area lifestyle, with easy access to the city and surrounding suburbs

Ideal Candidate

• DMD/DDS with completed OMS residency (or Prosthodontics residency with relevant surgical training)
• Valid Illinois license (or eligibility to obtain one)
• Comfortable working solo with a supportive, established team
• Strong chairside manner and commitment to patient care
