Job Description
IV Sedation Dentist, Per Diem
Location: Downey, CA
Schedule: Per diem, 2 to 4 set surgery days a month to start, with more as we grow
Pay: $1,000 to $1,800 per half day, based on experience, negotiable
About the role
5D Smiles is a busy implant and aesthetic dental center in Downey. We're looking for a dentist to be our dedicated IV sedation provider on surgery days.
Your job is sedation. You'll sedate and monitor adult patients during All-on-X and implant surgery while our implant surgeon operates. You may also do extractions on those days. You won't place implants or do restorative work.
We supply the sedation equipment: patient monitor with capnography, emergency drug kit, AED, oxygen, backup suction, and airway kit. You don't need to haul gear.
What you'll do
Review medical history and clear patients for sedation
Start the IV, give sedation, and monitor patients through long cases (3 to 5 hours)
Manage recovery, discharge, and post-op instructions
Do extractions as needed on surgery days
Put nervous patients at ease before and after surgery
Requirements
DDS or DMD with an active California license
Active California Moderate Sedation or General Anesthesia permit
Current ACLS
Your own DEA registration
Your own malpractice coverage that includes sedation
Nice to have
Experience sedating for All-on-X or full-arch surgery
Comfortable with surgical extractions
Spanish speaking, since many of our patients speak Spanish
Why work with us
Set surgery days with back-to-back cases, so your day is full and predictable
Sedation only: no restorative, no production quotas
Equipment provided and maintained
Calm, experienced surgical team
Room to add more days as we grow
To apply: send your CV, your California sedation permit number, your ACLS card, and roughly how many IV sedation cases you do each month.
Job Types: Full-time, Part-time
Pay: From $1,000.00 per day
Experience:
IV Sedation: 2 years (Required)
Work Location: In person
