Job description

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon – Watertown & Potsdam, NY

Oral Surgery of Northern New York is seeking a skilled, motivated Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon to join its established practice serving Watertown, Potsdam, and surrounding communities throughout Northern New York.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a respected specialty practice with an experienced surgical team, broad clinical scope, and an established presence across the region. The practice provides comprehensive oral and maxillofacial surgery in a modern office setting with a strong focus on patient comfort, safety, and clinical excellence.

We welcome both current OMFS residents preparing to graduate and experienced oral surgeons looking for their next long-term opportunity.

Why Oral Surgery of Northern New York Stands Out:

• Full-Scope Oral Surgery: Maintain a diverse surgical practice including dental implants, wisdom teeth removal, extractions, bone grafting, oral pathology, corrective jaw surgery, facial trauma, and facial reconstruction.

• Anesthesia Capabilities: Provide care using local anesthesia, nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and office-based general anesthesia in an environment designed around patient safety and comfort.

• Experienced Surgical Support: Work with certified oral and maxillofacial surgical assistants, administrative staff, and an RN who support both surgery and anesthesia care.

• Established Regional Presence: The practice serves patients through offices in Watertown and Potsdam, along with communities including Clayton, Canton, Fort Drum, Carthage, Gouverneur, and surrounding areas.

• Clinical Autonomy: Practice in an environment that supports independent clinical judgment while benefiting from the infrastructure and referral relationships of an established specialty group.

• Strong Long-Term Opportunity: Build meaningful relationships with patients and referring providers while establishing yourself within a growing regional market.

What Northern New York Has to Offer:

• Thousand Islands & Lake Ontario: Enjoy boating, fishing, waterfront recreation, and easy access to the Thousand Islands region.

• Adirondack Access: Northern New York offers convenient access to hiking, skiing, camping, and year-round outdoor recreation throughout the Adirondacks.

• Relaxed Lifestyle: Experience smaller communities, less congestion, and more space while still having access to the everyday amenities you need.

• Close to Canada: Watertown is within easy reach of the Canadian border, making weekend trips to Kingston and Ottawa convenient.

• Four-Season Living: Enjoy warm summers, colorful falls, snowy winters, and the full outdoor lifestyle that comes with living in Upstate New York.

Qualifications:

• DDS or DMD from an accredited dental school.

• Completion of an accredited Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery residency program prior to start date.

• Licensed or eligible for dental licensure in New York.

• Eligible for appropriate anesthesia and sedation permitting as required.

• Commitment to excellent surgical care, patient experience, and collaboration.

• Current residents and experienced oral surgeons are encouraged to apply.
