Job Description

Deeply embedded in the local community at 7 McKillop Street, Geelong Smile Studio proudly cares for patients and families across Geelong, Geelong West, East Geelong, Newtown, South Geelong, Belmont, Highton, and Grovedale.

We love local people — clinicians who want to build a long-term home here, connect with the community, and enjoy everything the Geelong region has to offer.

Our practice features a thriving preventive hygiene program powered by two dedicated Dental Hygienists. We are seeking a caring, ethical Dentist to help manage the active overflow from our hygiene department, treat emergency cases, and provide comprehensive restorative care.

Equipped with cutting-edge technology including CEREC CAD/CAM, Cone Beam CT, Nitrous Oxide, and MIS & Straumann Implant Systems, you will work alongside two highly experienced restorative dentists who are eager to mentor and support your qualified growth.

What You Will Be Doing

- Conduct comprehensive dental examinations, diagnose oral health conditions, and develop evidence-based, patient-centered treatment plans.

- Provide a broad range of general and comprehensive restorative procedures in line with Dental Board of Australia requirements.

- Manage workflow overflow from our busy 2-hygienist preventive care program and attend to emergency walk-ins.

- Educate, inform, and engage patients—building trust and presenting complex treatment options without pressure, knowing that long-term production follows genuine care.

- Collaborate closely with our Practice Manager and team, with opportunities to develop leadership skills and contribute to practice growth.

- Refer patients to specialist clinicians where clinically appropriate.

- Maintain accurate, timely, and compliant clinical records and documentation.
