Job Description
Are you an experienced dentist who still loves clinical dentistry but is looking for more than simply "drilling and filling"?
We are seeking a confident, relationship-driven Associate Dentist who wants to play a meaningful leadership role within a thriving, technology-forward private practice. This opportunity is ideal for a dentist who has developed strong clinical skills, values mentorship and team development, and enjoys helping guide a practice culture while continuing to produce at a high level.
At The Center for Dental Wellness at Camarillo, we believe exceptional dentistry begins with exceptional relationships—both with patients and with our team. We are looking for a doctor who can inspire trust, elevate those around them, and help lead our growing practice into its next chapter.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
You'll have the opportunity to:
Help lead and mentor a talented clinical team
Influence practice culture and patient care systems
Build long-term patient relationships

Continue developing your clinical skills through mentorship, CE, and advanced technology
About Our Practice
Our mission is to provide exceptional dental care by listening to patients' needs and delivering quality treatment in a safe, positive, and compassionate environment.

Solea laser
Gemini diode lasers
