Job description

Periodontist – Advanced Surgical Opportunity

Reno, Nevada

1–2 Days Per Month to Start | Significant Daily Production Potential | IV Sedation | Complex Implants | Private Practice | Immediate Referral Base

Are you a surgically driven Periodontist looking for an opportunity to practice beyond traditional periodontal procedures?

Our confidential, dentist-owned private group in Reno, Nevada is seeking an experienced Periodontist with advanced surgical capabilities to support an established internal referral network of Pediatric Dentists and high-producing General Dentists.

This opportunity is specifically designed for a Periodontist who is comfortable performing a broad scope of advanced surgical dentistry—including complex implant placement, surgical extraction of fully impacted third molars, bone grafting, and IV sedation in-office.

You’ll step into existing demand without having to build a referral network from scratch, beginning approximately 1–2 clinical days per month with the opportunity to expand as surgical volume grows.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Immediate Built-In Referral Base

• Established referrals from Pediatric Dentists and General Dentists within the organization
• Existing demand for advanced surgical procedures
• No need to develop a referral network from the ground up
• Ability to consolidate appropriate surgical cases into highly productive clinical days
• Significant opportunity to expand specialty services throughout the Reno market

Advanced Surgical Scope

This is not simply a traditional periodontal maintenance and implant position.

We are specifically seeking a Periodontist comfortable providing advanced procedures including, but not limited to:

• Complex Dental Implant Placement
• Surgical Extraction of Fully Impacted Third Molars
• Complex Surgical Extractions
• IV Sedation / In-Office Sedation
• Bone Grafting
• Ridge Augmentation
• Sinus Augmentation
• Socket Preservation
• Soft-Tissue Grafting
• Crown Lengthening
• Periodontal Surgery
• Full-Arch Implant Surgery
• Implant Complication Management
• Other Advanced Periodontal and Surgical Procedures

Candidates should have the appropriate training, experience, licensure, and sedation credentials necessary to perform these procedures independently.

Significant Production & Income Potential

• Collections-based compensation structure
• Highly productive surgical scheduling model
• Ability to concentrate complex procedures into dedicated specialty days
• Significant daily earning potential based on procedure mix and collections
• Additional upside as internal specialty referrals continue to grow

For a surgically experienced Periodontist performing complex implants, impacted third molars, grafting, and sedation cases, these days are designed to support exceptionally strong production potential.

Flexible Schedule

• Begin approximately 1–2 clinical days per month
• Schedule specialty days around existing commitments
• Expand frequency as patient demand increases
• Excellent opportunity for a Periodontist seeking supplemental surgical days or a strategic long-term presence in Northern Nevada

Modern Surgical Environment

You’ll practice within established offices supported by experienced clinical and administrative teams.

The organization is committed to supporting advanced surgical dentistry, including:

• Implant Surgery
• IV Sedation
• Complex Extractions
• Third Molar Surgery
• Bone Grafting
• Periodontal Surgery
• Full-Arch Treatment
• Advanced Surgical Case Coordination

Our goal is to keep appropriate specialty procedures within the practice’s existing patient network whenever clinically appropriate, creating a highly efficient referral model for the incoming Periodontist.

Private Practice Culture

• 100% dentist-owned and dentist-led
• No private equity involvement
• No corporate bureaucracy
• Strong clinical autonomy
• Collaborative relationships with referring doctors
• Experienced operational and clinical support
• Provider-first leadership philosophy

You’ll have the freedom to treatment plan appropriately, determine which cases fit your clinical scope, and practice according to your professional judgment.

Long-Term Growth Opportunity

The position will begin on a limited monthly schedule, but leadership views advanced surgical and periodontal services as an important area for continued growth.

For the right Periodontist, future opportunities may include:

• Increasing clinical days in Reno
• Developing a larger internal specialty referral program
• Supporting additional locations throughout the region
• Helping establish surgical protocols and specialty workflows
• Participating in future specialty expansion
• Exploring long-term partnership opportunities

The infrastructure and referral relationships are already in place—the objective is to find the right specialist to help build the service line.

Qualifications

• DDS/DMD
• Completion of an accredited Periodontics residency
• Board-Certified or Board-Eligible Periodontist preferred
• Nevada dental license or ability to obtain
• Appropriate Nevada sedation permit or ability to obtain
• Advanced implant surgery experience
• Demonstrated competency performing complex surgical extractions
• Experience extracting fully impacted third molars
• Experience administering IV sedation in an office-based environment
• Strong bone grafting and implant treatment-planning capabilities
• Excellent communication and patient-management skills
• Comfortable collaborating closely with Pediatric Dentists and General Dentists
• Interest in developing a long-term relationship with a growing private practice organization
