Associate Dentist — Ballarat (Smile Studio Ballarat, Alfredton) Busy books from day one 35–40% commission, paid on collections Full clinical scope — weekly GA lists, surgical suite (PRF, piezosurgery, CBCT), rotary endo, multiple scanners Settle in Ballarat: lifestyle, well-trained team, and a structured mentoring & teaching pathway About the role Smile Studio Ballarat (Alfredton) is looking for an experienced associate dentist ready to put down roots in Ballarat. This is a chance to practise the full scope of dentistry — including surgical and complex work — in a genuinely well-equipped, well-supported clinic, with busy books from day one and the lifestyle of one of regional Victoria's best cities. We're looking for someone who wants to build a career and a life here, not just take a job. The clinical environment — equipped to do serious dentistry This is a practice set up to let you take on the cases most clinics refer away: Weekly general anaesthetic lists in a fully equipped GA theatre. A real surgical setup — PRF for high-quality surgical and implant work, piezosurgery, and CBCT for planning and diagnostics. Major implant systems held on consignment — work across leading systems with stock on hand, rather than being locked to a single brand. A fully digital workflow — multiple intraoral scanners (CEREC, TRIOS, and a dedicated scanner for our digital denture protocol). Rotary endodontics and modern equipment throughout. A treatment coordinator and well-trained support staff — so your time goes on dentistry, not administration. The numbers, up front 35–40% commission, paid on collections (not billings) Established, busy books from day one — strong, growing patient demand in Alfredton Days flexible — full-time or part-time by arrangement Growth, mentoring and teaching A structured mentoring pathway — support from our principal and clinical team to grow into more complex surgical, implant and full-arch work, backed by our state of art labs and our full-arch program. If teaching and mentoring interest you, there's scope to get involved in education down the track — something we're happy to discuss as you establish yourself. Meet our Principal, Dr Vandana Budhwar, and see the clinical work and mentoring we do on Instagram: @vandanabudhwar Settle in Ballarat A major regional city ~75 minutes from Melbourne — city amenities at a regional pace, family-friendly, and far more affordable than metro. Established practice in one of Ballarat's fastest-growing suburbs, with the patient base and lifestyle to support a long-term move. Relocation support available to help you make the move.
