If you prefer a corporate-style environment, struggle with feedback, or aren’t excited to learn and leverage new technology, this opportunity may not be for you.This isn’t a DSO—it’s a private, doctor-led practice where mentorship is real and your growth is prioritized. You’ll work closely with Dr. Travis Hunsaker, DDS, MAGD, FAAID, DABO/ID—a dedicated mentor and lifelong learner who’s deeply invested in developing clinicians. He holds a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry (earned by less than 2% of dentists), is a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology, and a Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, making him a recognized implant specialist in Oregon. Mentorship here isn’t occasional—it’s built into your regular schedule, with structured time for case reviews, implant coaching, and clinical growth, led by someone who leads by example.We’re based in Salem, Oregon, a vibrant and welcoming city that offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and modern amenities. With beautiful parks, wineries, outdoor recreation, and a strong sense of community, Salem is ideal for professionals and families seeking an excellent quality of life. Our practice location makes it easy to enjoy everything the Willamette Valley has to offer, with Portland and the coast just a short drive away.This is a place where you can do dentistry the right way, with a supportive team, loyal patients, and all the tools you need to deliver excellent care.<h2 style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:5px;">Our Core Values</h2><ul><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Growth-Minded – We believe that growth is a continuous journey, not a destination. Whether it’s mastering advanced procedures, embracing the latest technology, or developing leadership skills, we actively invest in becoming better every day. You’ll be encouraged to challenge yourself and will be supported every step of the way as you build a career you’re proud of. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Integrity & Stewardship – We do what’s right, even when no one is watching, because our patients trust us to guide them with honesty and fairness—every decision—whether clinical or business—is made with the patient’s best interest in mind. We see our work as a responsibility to care for people and to protect the reputation and legacy of the practice. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Fun & Positivity – Dentistry doesn’t have to feel sterile or stressful. We bring energy, humor, and camaraderie into our days because we know positivity is contagious, and it makes our patients’ experience better, too. We’re serious about delivering great care, but we keep the atmosphere light—making it easy to look forward to coming in each day. Most of our team sticks around the office for lunch—not because they have to, but because they actually like spending time together. From regular potlucks to casual lunchtime laughs, we’ve built a culture where connection is genuine and showing up feels easy. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Community-Focused – Our roots in the Salem community run deep, and we believe in giving back to the people who support us. From initiatives like our Day of Free Dentistry to partnerships with local organizations, we prioritize making a positive impact beyond our doors. It’s about being part of something bigger and using our skills to serve.</li></ul><div style="list-style-type:disc;"></div><div style="list-style-type:disc;">What You’ll Do</div><ul><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Diagnose and present care clearly and confidently, so patients understand and accept it.</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Perform a wide range of general restorative procedures (fillings, crowns, extractions, etc.)</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Utilize advanced tools such as CBCT, iTero Lumina, TRIOS 5, and our in-house laboratory.</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Collaborate with assistants who handle expanded functions.</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Learn, grow, and be mentored by a team that’s rooting for your success. </li></ul><div style="list-style-type:disc;">Compensation & Benefits</div><ul><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Monthly Guarantee</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Paid on Adjusted Production</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">$4,000 Annual CE allowance</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Health Insurance</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">401(k) Safe Harbor</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Lab Fees Covered</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Relocation/sign-on bonuses available</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Long-term growth</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Mentorship - Regular hands-on mentorship </li></ul><h2 style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:5px;">Why This Job Stands Out</h2><ul><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Mentorship That’s Real – At Hunsaker Dental, mentorship is more than a promise—it’s built into your daily experience.

With excellent schools, a welcoming community, and quick access to Portland, the coast, and the Cascade Mountains, Salem offers an unbeatable work-life balance for both young professionals and families.</li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Culture That Feels Like Family – We genuinely enjoy working together, supporting each other through busy days, and celebrating wins as a team. Positivity and collaboration are at the heart of our operations. </li></ul><h2 style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:5px;">Who We’re Looking For</h2>Someone who is…..<ul><li style="list-style-type:disc;">A clear communicator who builds patient trust through honesty and confidence. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Humble, coachable, and growth-oriented—you want feedback and you act on it. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Comfortable with—or excited to learn—modern digital dentistry and advanced tech. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">A team player with strong ethics and a great sense of humor. </li><li style="list-style-type:disc;">Someone who appreciates private-practice autonomy and wants a long-term home.</li></ul> <h2 style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:5px;">Sound Like a Fit?
