About the Position
A well-established, multi-location dental group is seeking a General Dentist to join its growing team in Eastern North Carolina. This position will initially include 1 day per week in Morehead City (with the office opening in March/April) and 3 days per week in Jacksonville, transitioning to additional days in Morehead City as the practice becomes fully established.

The Morehead City office will also accept Medicaid but is designed to function more like a private practice, accepting major insurance plans along with cash and private-pay patients.
The incoming dentist should be confident providing comprehensive general dentistry, including oral surgery and removable prosthodontics.
