What is an orthodontic associate?

An Orthodontic Associate is a licensed dental professional who works under the supervision of a lead orthodontist to diagnose, prevent, and treat dental and facial irregularities, such as misaligned teeth and jaws. They help plan and implement treatment, apply braces or other corrective appliances, and monitor patient progress. Orthodontic Associates may also manage patient records, educate patients about oral hygiene, and work closely with dental assistants and administrative staff. This role is typically found in private orthodontic practices or larger dental clinics.

How does an orthodontic associate typically collaborate with other dental professionals within a practice?

Orthodontic Associates frequently work closely with general dentists, dental hygienists, and dental assistants to ensure comprehensive patient care. They may consult with general dentists regarding patients' overall dental health before starting orthodontic treatment and coordinate care for patients who require additional dental work. Effective communication and teamwork are vital, as Orthodontic Associates often rely on support staff for tasks like taking impressions, managing records, and scheduling follow-ups. This collaborative environment helps streamline treatment plans and enhances patient outcomes.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an orthodontic associate, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Orthodontic Associate, you need a dental degree, completed orthodontic residency, and state licensure, along with a strong understanding of orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Familiarity with digital imaging systems, orthodontic software, and intraoral scanners is commonly required. Excellent communication, attention to detail, and patient rapport are important soft skills for building trust and ensuring effective treatment. These skills and tools are crucial for delivering high-quality orthodontic care and achieving optimal patient outcomes.

Job description

Associate Orthodontist
Build Your Career Alongside an Established Leader in Orthodontics
Pavlo Orthodontics - Peabody and Newburyport, Massachusetts
Pavlo Orthodontics is looking for a passionate and motivated Associate Orthodontist to join our well-established practices in Peabody and Newburyport, Massachusetts. This full-time opportunity is ideal for an orthodontist who is ready to take the next step in their career, strengthen their clinical and leadership skills, and ultimately build toward partnership in a thriving practice.
Led by Dr. John Pavlo, Pavlo Orthodontics has earned an exceptional reputation within the communities it serves by combining high-quality orthodontic care with a philosophy of providing customer service second to none. You'll join a busy, collaborative practice supported by an experienced team that takes pride in creating an environment where patients feel known, comfortable, and confident in their care.
Why Peabody and Newburyport, Massachusetts?
Located on Massachusetts' North Shore, Peabody and Newburyport offer the best of both worlds: welcoming communities with convenient access to everything Greater Boston has to offer. Peabody is approximately 20 miles north of downtown Boston, making it possible to enjoy the opportunities, culture, dining, and energy of the city while building your career in a close-knit community.
Newburyport offers a different side of North Shore living, with its historic downtown, waterfront setting, local restaurants and shops, and classic coastal New England character. With both locations well connected to Boston and the surrounding region, you'll have flexibility in where you choose to live while enjoying all that the North Shore has to offer.
About the Role:
This full-time position is designed for an orthodontist who thrives in a busy practice environment and is excited to take on meaningful clinical and leadership responsibility as an integral member of the team.
You'll work alongside Dr. John Pavlo, an experienced orthodontist with a longstanding commitment to clinical excellence, continuing education, and finding new ways to advance patient care. Supported by a highly skilled team, you'll have the opportunity to refine your own approach to treatment, develop as a leader, and play an important role in the continued success of Pavlo Orthodontics.
While an experienced orthodontist is preferred, candidates at all stages of their careers are encouraged to apply.
What We Offer through Corus Orthodontists Doctor Excellence Program:
✅ Mentorship That Matters - Work shoulder-to-shoulder alongside Dr. John Pavlo and receive personalized coaching from top Corus doctors in clinical care, leadership, and business.
✅ Tailored Clinical Development Plan - Access a roadmap with key clinical milestones and resources designed to support your professional growth.
✅ Connection & Collaboration - Tap into a vibrant community of like-minded orthodontists for ongoing learning and support.
✅ Robust Rewards - Enjoy a competitive day rate, bonus opportunities, and a comprehensive benefits package.
✅ Path to Partnership - A clear and supported route to becoming a principal doctor, at your own pace.
At Corus, we don't just offer associate doctor positions - we offer a true pathway to partnership. Our model is designed to make ownership more accessible to you through a lower, more flexible buy-in structure, giving you the chance to build equity without taking on the full weight of running a practice alone.
As part of our network, you'll have access to top doctor mentors who are invested in your growth, as well as a community that values continuing education, clinical excellence, and the latest technological advancements. When the time is right, you'll have the opportunity to step into ownership with a significant equity stake in a growing, doctor-led company, all while knowing you're supported by a collaborative network that shares resources, expertise, and a vision for the future of orthodontics.
If you're ready to take the next step in your career and make a meaningful impact in an established practice with an exciting future ahead, we'd love to hear from you!
