Careers at Smart Dental Care

Associate or Locum Dentist (Private & Mixed)

O’Farrell Staunton Dental Studio, Newry
High Earnings | Flexible Hours | Excellent Work-Life Balance

Start: Flexible
Hours: Part-time or Full-time, days and hours to suit your lifestyle

Are you an Associate or Locum Dentist looking for a role that genuinely fits around your life. Not the other way around?

At O’Farrell Staunton Dental Studio, we believe great dentistry happens when clinicians are supported, valued, and have control over their time. Whether you’re seeking a few days a week or a full-time diary, we’ll work with you to design the perfect balance of hours and clinical work.

Why This Role Stands Out

 Strong Private & Mixed Potential

• Established private demand with realistic, achievable earnings

• Loyal patient base supported by active digital marketing

• Sustainable NHS element for stability, if desired

 Full Clinical Autonomy

• Freedom to choose your materials, labs, and treatment approach

• No pressure selling, patient-centred care always comes first

 Modern, Digital Practice

• 6 surgeries

• Trios 3 scanner

• OPG

• Fully computerised, digital workflows

• Strong TCO support for private treatment planning

 Supportive, Collaborative Team

• Excellent nursing support

• Experienced, hands-on Practice Manager

• Specialist mentorship available (implants, short-term ortho, oral surgery, aesthetic dentistry)

• Clinical diaries designed to avoid burnout

A Practice Built Around Work-Life Balance

• Flexible days and hours, part-time or full-time

• Consistent patient flow with minimal gaps

• Low staff turnover and a genuinely friendly, stable team

• A practice that invests in technology, CPD, and its people

Why Newry?

Perfectly located between Belfast and Dublin, Newry offers:

• Lower cost of living

• Easy commuting options

• Stunning outdoor spaces (Mourne Mountains, Carlingford Lough)

• A welcoming community with great food and culture

Who We’d Love to Speak To

• GDC-registered Associate or Locum Dentist

• Comfortable with mixed dentistry

• Interest in restorative, aesthetic, or short-term orthodontics is a bonus

• A clinician who values quality, teamwork, and balance
