The dentist position is 40 hours per week and works 20 hours per week at the downtown jail and 20 hours per week and the Community Reiteration Center (formerly House of Correction). You will typically work 10 hour shifts M-T, times are flexible as long as it works for both the dentist and their assistant (already on staff). The two facilities are about 12 miles from each other or a 20 minute drive. General duties include reviewing X-rays, extractions, annual exams (for patients who have been here for a year+), treating infections/abscesses. You will not be performing general cleanings and complicated extractions are sent out. I hope that covers it!
