Phoenix Dental is looking for an enthusiastic and ambitious Associate Dentist to join our established three-surgery mixed NHS and private practice in Palmers Green.
This position is available from August 2026 for between two and five days per week, Monday to Friday.
The role would suit a clinician looking for the stability of an NHS list alongside genuine opportunities to develop private dentistry within a supportive and progressive practice.
The opportunity
- 2–5 days per week

- Established mixed NHS and private patient base
- Excellent private earning potential

- Experienced nursing team
- Internal referral pathways
- Clinical support and mentorship
- Long-term opportunity for development
The number of days and UDA allocation can be tailored around the successful candidate.
Our practice ethos
Relationship building is at the centre of our practice.
We believe excellent dentistry starts with listening to patients, understanding their needs and building genuine trust. Our aim is to develop long-term patient relationships rather than focusing only on individual appointments or treatments.
Through clear, ethical and patient-centred communication, associates have genuine opportunities to provide appropriate private treatment alongside NHS care.

You will have access to:
- Three fully equipped surgeries
- Dentally practice management software
- iTero and 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanners

- Digital radiography
- Reciprocating endodontic motors
- Composite heater
- In-surgery televisions

Clinicians who enjoy providing endodontic treatment will have the equipment and support to do so. Where treatment is outside your experience or preferred scope, patients can be referred internally to one of our dentists with an interest in endodontics.
Clinical opportunities
There will be opportunities to develop and provide:
- General NHS and private dentistry
- Composite bonding
- Invisalign
- Teeth whitening
- Restorative dentistry
- Endodontics
- Smile makeovers
- Complex treatment planning
- Full-mouth rehabilitation
As part of our wider group, you will be joining a Top 150 Invisalign provider globally, with access to experienced clinicians, guidance and mentorship.
Professional development
You will become part of the wider DADP community across our sister practices.
We run regular study clubs led by experienced clinicians, covering:
- Clinical development
- Treatment planning
- Patient communication
- Ethical treatment presentation
- Marketing
- Personal and professional development
Our aim is to help motivated dentists build confidence, expand their skills and develop into well-rounded clinicians.

- Has valid professional indemnity
- Provides high-quality, patient-centred care
- Communicates treatment options clearly and ethically
- Wants to build long-term patient relationships
