DENTISTS
If you are looking for an excellent opportunity to practice dentistry in the Norfolk and Suffolk counties of England, do consider contacting us. We are always on the lookout for possible colleagues who should be friendly and have good clinical and communication skills. You should be eager to improve yourself as well as your dentistry. We do encourage all of our dentists to keep up to date with any new developments and techniques in our field by attending courses and seminars and we also have an extensive collection of reading material available. We are a friendly group practitioners, from origin both local and abroad. Our social club has many activities to keep everyone young at heart. "Friendly" cricket, football, netball, tennis and golf are just a few of the activities which the practice organises for our team of dentists and staff therefore a sense of fun and competitiveness is also important.
 

DENTAL VOCATIONAL TRAINING
Being an approved training practice for Vocational Training there have been a number of newly qualified graduates who have chosen our practice to do their training each year. Most have enjoyed their work and social experience with our practice that they have decided joined our team and stay on. Our group of dental surgeons are always willing to help educate and guide future dentists and having a few Specialists on our team has meant that our young graduates can draw on their expertise and experience therefore learning just a bit more than General Dentistry. There is always someone to ask for help and advice. It is always good to have young graduates bringing new ideas and enthusiasm to our team.
 

AUXILIARY STAFF
JUNIOR / SENIOR DENTAL NURSES
There are also opportunities for junior and qualified senior nurses to join our motivated team.
 

DENTAL NURSE TRAINING
We have for many years been successful in the training of Dental Nurses to qualification level-in fact as a Practice we have had a 100% pass rate the last 7 years when the National average has been 58%-62%.

The Practice is an accredited City & Guilds Assessment Centre providing the Level 3 Award in Oral Health Care Dental Nursing.

As this is an L.S.C. Accredited Course Candidates receive a training allowance plus attendance bonus during training, they also receive 4 weeks annual holiday plus all statutory days. On qualification candidates receive a basic Dental Nurse salary with a pathway to career development and associated increments. All Trainee dental nurses are employed by the Practice at commencement of training.

Training takes place on a basis of Training Days at our Training Centre at Caister-on-Sea and Surgery Placement within our Coastal Practices. Candidates wishing to apply must be 16-19yrs old and have a good standard G.C.S.C. Pass in English and Maths or equivalent predicted grades . An understanding of Human Biology is an asset but not essential. A Dental Nurse requires a confident but calm and friendly manner with an understanding and sympathetic approach.

Once qualified many of our staff continue in personal development course in:-

Oral Hygiene Instruction
Dental Radiology
Assessor Awards

Our next course starts July and interviews are taking place during March and April.
