Periodontist (Part Time) - Private Dental Practice

Join Our Brand-New Practice & Exceptional Team!

Serenity Grove Dental opened its doors in January 2025 in Wellington, FL, and we are building something truly special. Our mission is to deliver exceptional dental care in a spa-like, patient-centered environment where comfort, trust, and long-term health come first.

We are seeking a high-caliber, patient-focused Periodontist to join our growing private practice on a part-time basis: 1 day per month initially. This is an excellent opportunity for a specialist who values clinical excellence, ethical care, and collaborative teamwork in a modern, non-corporate setting.

If you are looking for a long-term professional home where you can practice periodontics the right way — without pressure or volume-driven dentistry — we would love to meet you.

Patient-centered philosophy: Emphasis on comfort, education, and long-term periodontal health — never high-pressure sales
Supportive team culture: Collaborative, respectful, and positive environment — we genuinely enjoy working together
Clinical autonomy: Practice evidence-based periodontics with adequate time for diagnosis, planning, and treatment
Growth opportunity: Increasing specialty demand as the practice expands; opportunity to shape periodontal protocols and services
Community involvement: Opportunities to participate in local outreach, wellness events, and community engagement in Wellington and South Florida
