Why work at tooth?
We want tooth to be somewhere that people enjoy working.
We are proud of our reputation for providing high-quality dentistry in a relaxed, friendly and modern environment. Our team is made up of people with different backgrounds, experience and areas of expertise, but we all share the same aim: to provide our patients with an exceptional experience.
A modern dental practice
Our practices are modern, well equipped and designed around both our patients and our team. We use contemporary dental equipment, technology and systems across our general and specialist services.
A friendly and supportive team
Dentistry is a team effort. Our Dentists, Specialists, Nurses, Hygienists, Reception and Manager team work closely together, supporting each other throughout the day.
We believe that being friendly, approachable and willing to help each other is just as important as having the right technical skills.
Opportunities to develop
We want people to develop and progress. Whether you are starting your career in dentistry, building your experience as a Dental Nurse, developing your skills as a Dentist or looking for your next role in dental reception, we are interested in people who want to learn and improve.
We also work alongside experienced clinicians across a range of dental disciplines, giving our team exposure to a broad range of treatments and clinical environments.
A varied clinical environment
tooth provides a wide range of general and specialist dental services. Our practices provide general dentistry, dental hygiene, orthodontics and smile alignment, cosmetic dentistry and a range of specialist treatments including oral surgery, dental implants, periodontics and endodontics.
This creates an interesting and varied environment for both clinical and non-clinical team members.
Patient care comes first
Our patients are at the centre of everything we do.
We are proud of the feedback we receive from our patients, and our hundreds and hundreds of 5 Star Google Reviews - as well as our reputation for providing friendly, professional and caring dental services in London.
We look for team members who genuinely care about people and understand that a great patient experience is about much more than simply providing treatment.
