About

DDS Recruit is a culture-first dental recruiting firm. For 17 years, we have placed associate dentists, in-house specialists, hygienists, office leaders, and C-level talent for private practices, groups, and DSOs. We are not a job board. We act as your fractional recruiting team: we learn the practice, run the search end to end, and introduce candidates whose working style and motivation match the room, not just the job description. Practices hire us when staffing is the #1 bottleneck. Candidates work with us when they want a practice they will actually stay in. Searches are nationwide, with depth in suburban and metro markets. We back placements with a one-year replacement guarantee. You pay a modest monthly search fee plus a success fee only when the hire sticks. Roles we fill: associate dentists, dental specialists, additional clinical team members, office managers, clinical directors, and DSO expansion leadership.
