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 professional 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.

Experience: Minimum 2 years’ clinical experience in general dentistry (outstanding mentorship available for growing practitioners!).
