About the Job
ASSOCIATE GENERAL DENTIST — MARIETTA & NORTH DRUID HILLS, GA
Two Affluent Locations · Emergency-Driven Patient Flow · Growth-Rewarding Compensation · Profits Interest Pathway

READ THIS FIRST:
This isn't a "fill the seat" associate role. We're hiring our next clinical leader for a two-location group operating in two of metro Atlanta's most affluent communities — East Cobb and North Druid Hills. The right candidate will build a 36-month clinical career here with a real ownership pathway.

If you're scrolling for the highest sign-on bonus, this isn't your role. We pay above market for performance, but we don't bribe. The dentists who thrive here are the ones who would have stayed even without the perks.

ABOUT THE GROUP:

Two locations. Two affluent patient bases. One operating system.

Marietta Dentist (East Cobb): A high-velocity general practice on a major arterial in one of metro Atlanta's strongest family-income zip codes. Recall-heavy, family-driven, with strong cosmetic and elective case flow.

Atlanta Emergency Dentist (North Druid Hills · Emory area): Emergency-positioned practice in one of Atlanta's most affluent intown communities. High walk-in volume of pain patients with immediate treatment needs — the highest case-acceptance patient type in dentistry. Heavy surgical, endo, and implant case mix.

Across both locations:
  • Consistent monthly new patient flow driven by paid digital + extended-hours scheduling.
  • Same-day dentistry model — we don't waste exam-to-treatment friction.
  • Full clinical stack: digital X-ray, CBCT, in-house implants, IV and oral sedation, surgical guides.
  • Spa-aesthetic facilities designed for high case acceptance.
  • Drama-free teams trained on a shared operational playbook.
  • Diagnostic %, case acceptance, and production tracked and reviewed weekly.

WHY THE PRODUCTION MATH WORKS HERE:

Both zip codes sit well above metro Atlanta median household income. The national average accepted treatment plan is around $1,600. In our patient base — combined with a full clinical stack, emergency-driven walk-in volume at our intown location, and proper case presentation — average accepted plans run materially higher.

A competent, coachable dentist with a year of ramp under our systems should be producing $150,000–$200,000+ per month. Our top performers run higher.


COMPENSATION ARCHITECTURE:
We've designed pay around three principles: align with how associate ramps actually work, eliminate collections-based games, and reward growth disproportionately.

MONTHS 1–3 — THE RAMP PERIOD:
$700/day base guarantee against tiered compensation — whichever is higher is what you take home.
You'll do your own hygiene during this ramp window. This is intentional: it exposes you to more exams, accelerates your case acceptance reps, and gets your column full faster. As your schedule fills, hygienist support comes online.

MONTH 4 ONWARD — TIERED PRODUCTION COMPENSATION:

All compensation is on adjusted production — no collections risk on you. We pay marginal tiers, like income tax brackets. Each dollar of production earns the rate of the tier it falls into:

Monthly Adjusted Production:
  • $0 – $49,999. Tier Rate- 24%
  • $50,000 – $99,999. Tier Rate-26%
  • $100,000 – $149,999. Tier Rate-28%
  • $150,000 – $199,999. Tier Rate-30%
  • $200,000 – $249,999. Tier Rate- 32%
  • $250,000+ Tier Rate-34%

WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE AT REAL PRODUCTION LEVELS:
Monthly Production-Total Monthly Comp-Annualized:
  • $100,000-$25,000-$300,000
  • $150,000-$39,000-$468,000
  • $200,000-$54,000-$648,000
  • $250,000-$70,000-$840,000
  • $300,000-$87,000-$1,044,000

This structure is built for dentists who want to grow. The harder you push, the more disproportionate the reward becomes — the structure is designed to make a $300K/mo associate take home owner-level income.

PROFITS INTEREST PATHWAY (MONTH 12+)

Performers vest into our location-level profits interest pool — 4% per year, up to 20% over five years. Real cash distributions from actual profit, paid quarterly. Not phantom paper that never triggers.

For the right candidate, pathway to seller-financed equity with no outside debt required.

CAREER ARC — WHAT YEAR 3 LOOKS LIKE:
We build a written 3-year plan with you at offer:
  • Year 1: Master case acceptance in our patient demographic, fill your column, work toward $150K+/mo production
  • Year 2: Develop a clinical specialty (implants, surgical, IV sedation, clear aligners, advanced endo) — we fund the CE
  • Year 3: Senior dentist role, vested profits interest, mentor incoming associates, qualify for equity discussion

As we expand to a third location, the most likely senior dentist for that opening is someone already in our group.

WHAT WE INVEST IN YOU:
  • CE budget for procedures that grow your scope and earnings — implants, surgical, advanced endo, IV sedation, full-arch
  • Live-patient training opportunities for advanced procedures
  • Weekly clinical performance review — diagnostic %, case acceptance, and production benchmarked transparently against peers
  • 30-day onboarding team with proactive daily check-ins to surface friction early
  • Cross-location exposure to two patient populations (family/recall and emergency/surgical) — accelerates clinical breadth in a way single-location associate roles can't

THE HIRING PROCESS:
We use a personality profiling system (BenchmarkHire) as part of our final round — a 20-minute structured exercise. We do this because data shows it predicts long-term success more reliably than interviews, and because we want every hire to feel like a deliberate match — not a gamble. Most candidates find it the most thoughtful hiring process they've experienced.


REQUIREMENTS:
  • DDS/DMD with active Georgia license (or able to obtain within 60 days).
  • Comfort with restorative, removable, basic surgery, and emergency triage.
  • Bonus clinical skills welcome: implants, IV sedation, surgical extractions, clear aligners, advanced endo.
  • Most importantly: growth mindset, coachability, composure under emergency walk-in pressure, and the intent to build a 3+ year career here.

HOW TO APPLY:
Send your CV plus a short note (one paragraph is plenty) on what you want your 3-year clinical arc to look like.

We don't read cover letters about how great you are. We read for clarity on what you actually want to build.
About Atlanta Emergency Dentist/Marietta Dentist
```
Atlanta Emergency Dentist and Marietta Dentist are a two-location dental group serving two of metro Atlanta's most affluent communities — North Druid Hills (Emory area) and East Cobb. We operate as one organization with one operating system: shared playbooks, shared technology stack, shared standards.

Our Marietta location is a high-velocity general practice serving family-driven patients with strong cosmetic, restorative, and elective case flow. Our North Druid Hills location is positioned around emergency and same-day care, drawing a steady stream of pain patients with immediate treatment needs — the highest case-acceptance demographic in dentistry.

Across both offices, we've built what most practices talk about but few actually run: a real marketing engine producing consistent new patient flow, a same-day dentistry model, a full clinical stack (CBCT, in-house implants, IV and oral sedation, surgical guides), and spa-aesthetic facilities designed to support high case acceptance. Every team member operates against transparent weekly metrics — we don't run on guesswork.

We're an entrepreneurial, growth-oriented group. The team members who thrive here are coachable, take ownership of their numbers, and want to build a long-term career rather than collect a paycheck. In return, we invest heavily in our people: continuing education, clinical mentorship, leadership pathways, and — for the right candidates — profits interest and ownership opportunities.

If you want to be part of a modern, well-run practice that treats its team like the future of the company, we'd like to hear from you.
