Recruiting New Dental Office Associates

Doctors know the clinical culture in their dental practice relies upon recruiting top talent and offering opportunities for professional growth. As the Dental Leadership Organization, Lightwave has a doctor-led management culture that prioritizes your local brand and staff relationships.

We align with top doctors to help you lead your teams and reach your goals with the industry’s best support without the ugly drawbacks of corporate dentistry.

We know a dental practice being down just one doctor or hygienist is a significant strain. Lightwave tailors its support to your needs, recruiting new associates within a short timeframe to help maintain revenue projections. We offer new candidates world-class benefits and robust compensation packages, with an unparalleled commitment to leadership development.

Maintain Staffing Relationships with Doctors & Hygienists

Maintaining a practice’s culture and team cohesion is as important as filling its vacancy. We fully get to know candidates; this ensures they align with your goals and team dynamics. We also foster strong synergy with the doctors, hygienists, and team, seeing that all are well-supported so they can thrive at the practice and within their career.
