General/Cosmetic Dentist, Associate or Successor: Kansas City, Missouri

Kansas City, MO | Full-Time, 4 Days per Week | Boutique Cosmetic and Family Practice | Equity Available | $275,000–$325,000 per Year

A boutique, cosmetic-forward practice where the doctor is the brand, and the founder is retiring. This small, doctor-led Kansas City office wants a full-time dentist to take a chair, lead alongside the remaining doctor and, if you want it, become the owner. It's not a DSO floor and not 30–40 patients a day. It's a relationship-driven patient base in an established neighborhood.

Two ways in

• Associate: a full-time clinical role in a small, cosmetic-focused private practice.
• Owner/successor: equity is available. The founder wants a leader who'll protect the patient base and reputation they built.

Start as an associate and talk ownership once both sides have seen the fit.

The work

• Comprehensive general dentistry with a cosmetic emphasis: esthetic restorative, veneers and smile design, crowns and whitening
• Everyday family care
• Bring the skills you have. The remaining doctor and the founder (through the transition) will discuss mentorship and case-selection standards.

The practice

• 6 operatories: 4 doctor ops and 2 hygiene ops
• After the founder retires: 2 dentists in the 4 doctor ops and 2 hygienists in the 2 hygiene ops, so no one is stacked on top of each other
• A boutique size: room to work, without a 15–20 op box or a 4-chair squeeze

Schedule

Four days: Tuesday 7:30 AM–2:30 PM, Wednesday 10:00 AM–6:00 PM, Thursday 7:30 AM–2:30 PM, plus Monday or Friday 7:30 AM–2:30 PM. Closed weekends. Early-out days plus one later midweek shift give you a real week, not 50 hours of chair time.

What you need

• A Missouri dental license, or one in process
• Comfort in a small office and genuine interest in cosmetic and comprehensive care
• Openness to associate-only or to becoming the next owner, and someone the founder can trust with their patients and name

Compensation

$275,000–$325,000 per year, with equity available for the doctor who wants to own.

Why Kansas City

Established neighborhoods, a reasonable cost of living compared with the coasts and patients who will drive for a dentist they trust. It's an easy place to practice and, on the equity path, an easy place to own.
