Join a team that truly cares — about kids and each other.
$10,000 sign-on bonus + relocation assistance for the right pediatric dentist.
We’re looking for a pediatric dentist who loves this work as much as we do — and who wants to be part of a team that actually feels like one.
Children’s Dentistry of Knoxville is a well-established pediatric practice with two East Tennessee locations — and a third office opening soon. What makes us different is our people. Our doctors mentor each other, our support staff takes incredible care of our providers, and every member of the team is here because they genuinely love caring for kids. We offer a supportive, balanced schedule so you can be your best at work and at home, and compensation that gives you a guaranteed floor plus real upside — without production-chasing pressure.
Whether you’re a new graduate or an experienced associate looking for a practice that feels like home, we’d love to talk.
What makes this different
- A schedule that supports your life. We believe great dentists do their best work when they have time to rest and be with their families. We’ll build a schedule together that works for you, with weekend and emergency coverage shared fairly across the team.
- A team that has your back. Credentialing, insurance, scheduling, follow-ups — our staff takes care of it so you can focus on your patients. You won’t be doing this alone.
- Doctors who mentor, not manage. You’ll work alongside Dr. Darryl, Dr. Mark, and Dr. Jim — experienced pediatric dentists who genuinely care about your growth, your patients, and your wellbeing. They’ve built a culture of learning from each other, and you’ll be welcomed into it from day one.
- Room to grow with us. A modern, fully digital office with sedation and general anesthesia capabilities, a loyal and expanding patient family, and a third location opening soon — with the right fit, there’s a real opportunity to help shape what comes next.
Compensation that rewards you, not pressures you
| Guaranteed floor + real upside, without production quotas. Pay: Guaranteed daily rate + 30%+ of collections, plus $10,000 sign-on bonus Relocation: Assistance provided to get you here Retirement: 401(k) with safe harbor contribution Health: Medical, dental, vision, HSA, Dependent Care FSA Protection: Company-paid life and short-term disability, plus malpractice insurance Growth: CE allowance, license and dues reimbursement, and a path to partnership if you want it |
And if you’re new to East Tennessee — Knoxville offers a low cost of living, no state income tax, the Smoky Mountains in your backyard, and a family-friendly community that’s easy to love.
If this sounds like the setup you’ve been looking for, we’d love to start a conversation.
