Who We’re Looking For:
We are seeking a calm, logical, organized, and detail-oriented associate dentist who is passionate about providing patient-centered care. Experience with biological dentistry is a plus, but not required. We're excited to mentor you if you're committed to learning and growing in whole-body health. Our ideal candidate is:
Calm & Patient-Focused: Able to educate and guide patients with clarity and compassion.
Growth-Oriented: Eager to continually improve clinical skills and stay updated with biological protocols.
Organized & Responsible: You appreciate a clean, orderly, and calm environment.
An Active Listener: Someone who truly values each patient's story and personal dental journey.
Sense of Humor: A bonus! We enjoy a light-hearted, friendly workplace culture.
Biologically-Minded or Eager to Learn: You appreciate (or are ready to embrace) biological care, safe mercury removal, and health-centered dentistry.
Why you’ll love this opportunity
We are looking for an associate dentist to join our thriving, 100% fee-for-service, biological dental practice. Founded by Dr. Janet Stopka, an Air Force dental veteran and Loyola Dental School graduate, our practice leads the southwest Chicago suburbs in biological, health-centered dentistry. With over 30 years of experience and a reputation built on trust, Dr. Stopka has created a serene and purpose-driven environment that attracts a loyal, wellness-focused patient base.
100% Fee-for-Service: No insurance constraints. No coding headaches. No waiting on claims. Patients give you their full trust and investment in your care; you’ll have complete clinical freedom to recommend what’s best for your patients.
6-Month Waitlist: We are currently booked out nearly six months in advance. That means you’ll step into a full schedule from day one, without needing to hustle for patients or “build your book.” Your time will be spent doing what you love, providing exceptional care.
Biological Dentistry with Full Training: Whether new to whole-body dental care or already experienced, we offer hands-on training in advanced protocols like safe mercury removal, ozone therapy, and material biocompatibility. Dr. Stopka and our knowledgeable team will mentor you directly.
Ownership Potential: You have the chance to own a fully FFS practice in 1-2 years with high-level mentorship for a private practice dentist.
