THE OPPORTUNITY
We are representing an established, high-end private cosmetic practice in Launceston seeking an experienced clinician with a strong interest in cosmetic or implants and comprehensive restorative dentistry.
For a dentist currently practising in Melbourne, this offers a very different career proposition.
In a highly competitive metropolitan market, even strong clinicians can find themselves competing for patient flow, higher-value cases and the opportunity to build a substantial long-term book.
This practice offers strong existing demand, a premium patient base and considerably less clinical saturation.
The incoming dentist will step into established patient flow, with around 3-4 days of demand available from the outset and approximately 80 new patients per month across the practice (amongst only two dentists). Demand is currently constrained by clinician capacity rather than lack of enquiries.
Clinically, the practice combines premium dentistry, smile design and facial aesthetics, with opportunities across veneers, implants, aligners,
full-mouth rehabilitation and comprehensive restorative care.
For an ambitious clinician, there is genuine scope to broaden your exposure to higher-value dentistry, develop your own clinical niche and build a substantial long-term patient book.
The position is available across 3, 4 or 5 days per week. An initial fly-in fly-out arrangement can also be discussed before making a longer-term relocation.

WHY LAUNCESTON?
Launceston offers an experienced dentist the opportunity to practise in a substantial regional market with significantly less competition than Melbourne.
The broader Launceston area has a population of more than 80,000 and fewer than 20 dental practices, and it serves a wider Northern Tasmanian catchment, creating strong scope to establish long-term patient relationships and grow a loyal book.
It also offers shorter commutes, more accessible housing, excellent food and wine, and easy access to Tasmania's coastline and outdoors.
Melbourne is less than an hour away by direct flight, with regular services throughout the week, making an initial transition practical.

- 40–45% commission
- Premium patient base receptive to comprehensive treatment planning
- Cosmetic dentistry, veneers, implants, DSD, aligners and full-mouth rehabilitation
- Opportunity to develop your own clinical niche
- Premium modern environment with digital workflows and intraoral scanners
- Strong ongoing marketing and referral support

ABOUT YOU
This position is not intended for a dentist simply looking for another chair.
We are interested in speaking with a clinician who is responsible about their career, takes pride in the quality of their work and wants greater opportunity to develop clinically, build their patient book and do more high-value dentistry.
You may be a strong fit if:
- You have at least 5+ years of Australian private practice experience
- You have a genuine interest in cosmetic and/or comprehensive restorative dentistry
- You are experienced in areas such as veneers, full-mouth rehabilitation, implants/All-on-X or comprehensive treatment planning
- You diagnose comprehensively and communicate treatment options confidently
- You prioritise ethical, patient-centred care
- You are motivated, commercially aware and ambitious about your long-term career
- You value clinical autonomy while remaining open to collaboration
- You are open to Tasmania, relocation or an initial fly-in-fly-out arrangement
- You hold unrestricted AHPRA registration and current professional indemnity insurance
-
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
You may already have a good position in Melbourne but be questioning whether a highly competitive metropolitan market gives you the best runway to build the career, patient book and clinical profile you want over the next five to ten years.
There is no expectation to relocate overnight.
We can have a confidential conversation about the practice, patient demand, earning potential and how an initial fly-in fly-out arrangement could work, allowing you to decide whether it is worth exploring further.
For more information and a confidential discussion, please email Adam at
