Whether you are a Dentist in general practice or Special Care, Solent are offering you a fantastic package to join our Special Care and Paediatric Service within Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. We are invested in you, helping you develop your skills to be the professional you want to be!
The Special Care Dental Service provides preventive care and dental treatment to children and adults with additional needs who cannot receive care in a general dental setting. Ideally, you will have experience of working with people with learning disabilities but don't worry if not, we will need you to be adaptable and compassionate to support our patients.
We currently have a vacancy at our Special Care Dental clinics, located in the Southampton area and can offer an immediate start to join a team of likeminded dental professionals.
At Solent we provide the best for our teams and patients with established surgeries and state of the art equipment and the use of theatre space in local hospitals. We will offer you a varied caseload where every day brings new challenges with excellent opportunities to upskill in topics such as conscious sedation and domiciliary dentistry, and access to a training budget to maintain your personal development.
If you are looking for somewhere you can make a real difference with appointment times to enable quality dentistry, a career with us may be just what you're looking for!
Main duties of the job
Working with adults and children with a physical, sensory, intellectual, mental, medical, social impairment or disability and those who require specialist occasional care due to medical, physical or behavioural difficulties.
It also includes care for children with extensive oral disease, those with developmental disorders of the teeth and mouth and children who are anxious or too young to accept routine dental treatment if required.
Care will mainly be provided in clinic locations but may also be provided in hospital and domiciliary setting where appropriate.
The service works in partnership with the wider health and social care system to improve access to early intervention and treatment, reduce health inequalities and promote prevention of oral diseases across the Special Care and Paediatric Dentistry care pathway.
