Associate Dentist, Private Focus/Smiles Dental Care, Ballymena (BT43 5BY)/
£100,000+ Potential/4 Days | Exceptional Private Growth Opportunity
A rare opportunity in a high-demand private setting
Smiles Dental Care, Ballymena, is expanding, and we are seeking a talented, ambitious Associate Dentist to join our modern, forward-thinking practice.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a clinician looking to build a high-value private portfolio within a supportive, well-established environment, with realistic six-figure earning potential and strong patient demand for advanced treatments.
Why This Role Stands Out
Exceptional Private Earnings (£100k+)
Benefit from a well-maintained and growing patient base with strong demand for Invisalign, cosmetic dentistry, implants, and high-end restorative work. This is a genuine opportunity to develop a lucrative private list.
Established & Growing Practice
Join a busy, reputable clinic with both NHS and private patients, offering immediate workflow alongside long-term private growth.
Modern, Digital Dentistry
Work in a fully equipped, 4-surgery practice with digital radiography, rotary endodontics, and high-quality materials to support excellent clinical outcomes.
Work-Life Balance That Works
1. 4-day working week (full-time equivalent) or Part-time available
2. Flexible hours to suit your lifestyle
3. Optional Saturdays
4. Located just 30 minutes from Belfast, with easy access to the Antrim Coast
Supportive, Professional Environment
5. Experienced dental nurses
6. Proactive and organised Practice Manager
7. Collaborative clinical team
8. Clinical freedom with full support when needed
Clinical Opportunities
We are particularly interested in dentists with a passion for, or desire to grow in:
9. Implant Dentistry
10. Invisalign & Clear Aligners
11. Cosmetic Dentistry (bonding, veneers, whitening, smile design)
12. Advanced Restorative/Full-Mouth Rehabilitation
13. Endodontics (including complex cases)
14. Facial Aesthetics (optional)
You’ll have the clinical freedom and patient demand to develop these skills into a highly profitable area of practice.
Who We’re Looking For
15. GDC-registered dentist (or in process)
16. EEA or equivalent international qualifications welcome
17. A clinician with a patient-focused, ethical approach
18. Motivated, driven, and keen to grow a private income stream
19. Someone who values quality dentistry and long-term patient relationships
Why Join Smiles Dental Care?
At Smiles, you’re not just filling a role, you’re building a career. We provide the platform, patient base, and support for you to thrive in private dentistry while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
