An Opportunity for an Experienced Dental Therapist

Are you an experienced Dental Therapist with 5+ years of clinical experience looking for a role where you can use your skills, develop your interests and become an important part of a supportive dental team?

We are looking for a confident and motivated Dental Therapist-Direct Access to join one of our Manchester practices.

This is an excellent opportunity for a therapist who enjoys delivering high-quality preventive and periodontal care and who has, or would like to develop, a special interest in Periodontics, Endodontics or Oral Surgery.

The Role

You will provide a broad range of dental therapy and hygiene services to NHS and private patients, with the opportunity to develop your clinical interests.

Your role may include:

• Direct Access dental therapy and hygiene services.
• Periodontal assessment, treatment and maintenance.
• Non-surgical periodontal therapy and ongoing periodontal care.
• Preventive dentistry and oral health education.
• Working with dentists to provide comprehensive patient care.
• Supporting the management of patients with more complex periodontal needs.
• Developing an interest in endodontics, periodontics or oral surgery within your scope of practice.
• Identifying patients requiring referral and working collaboratively with the wider clinical team.
• Building strong, long-term relationships with patients.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for an experienced clinician who is:

• GDC registered as a Dental Therapist.
• Has at least 5 years' clinical experience.
• Qualified and confident to provide Direct Access services.
• Experienced in delivering high-quality hygiene and periodontal care.
• Passionate about preventive and patient-centred dentistry.
• Confident working independently while being a strong team player.
• Interested in developing a particular clinical interest in Periodontics, Endodontics and/or Oral Surgery.
• Excellent at communicating with patients and motivating them to improve their oral health.

A postgraduate qualification or additional training in one of these areas would be advantageous, but we are equally interested in experienced therapists who are keen to develop further.

What We Offer

• NHS and private patient base.
• Supportive and experienced dental team.
• Opportunity to develop your clinical interests.
• Access to ongoing professional development and training.
• Modern, well-equipped clinical environment.
• Collaborative working with dentists, nurses, Treatment Coordinators and Practice Managers.
• Opportunities to develop your career within a growing dental organisation.

Why Join Us?

We want our therapists to do more than simply deliver hygiene appointments. We want to support experienced clinicians to develop their clinical skills, take an active role in patient care and build an area of special interest.

If you're an experienced Dental Therapist who enjoys periodontal care and would like the opportunity to develop further interests in periodontics, endodontics or oral surgery, we'd love to hear from you.
