    Why You'll Love Working Here

    At Bear Creek Family Dental, we've built something special—this isn't just a job, it's a long-term opportunity to grow, lead, and thrive.

    Founded in 2018 by Dr.

    Kyle Shull, our practice in North Columbia, MO has grown steadily thanks to a loyal patient base, a reputation for integrity, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together.

    We're known in the community for going the extra mile—for patients and for each other—and we're proud of that.
    As an associate, you won't be thrown into the deep end or left to figure things out alone. You'll receive mentorship with one-on-one check-ins, case reviews, and chairside coaching when needed. Dr. Shull is invested in your success. As you grow in experience or come in as a seasoned dentist, your collaboration with Dr. Shull and the entire team will be expected and valued.

    You'll have the tools to grow quickly, with access to high-level tech (CBCT, CEREC, 3D printing, in-house milling, and more), a strong new patient flow (70+ per month), and a diverse patient base that spans from blue-collar families to white-collar professionals.

    We're intentional about treating every patient with empathy and dignity, and we value your ability to communicate clearly and compassionately.

    Even better? We're preparing for growth.

    A brand-new, ground-up facility is in the works, set to open tentatively in 2028 with 11 ops and even more space for expanded services.

    If you're business-minded, there's a clear and genuine path to partnership after a couple of years.
    This opportunity is ideal for someone who is humble, eager to learn, and enjoys working closely with others.

    If you prefer to go it alone, shy away from mentorship or collaboration, or are driven by numbers, this might not be the right fit.

    But if you're looking for a place where you can belong, grow, and make a real difference, you just found it.

    What We Value

    Integrity:
    We stand behind our word, even when it is not the most profitable. If we make a promise to a patient or teammate, we follow through—no excuses. Doing the right thing isn't a strategy here; it's a standard. Our team knows that trust is earned, and we work every day to protect it.

    Empathy:
    We care deeply about the human side of dentistry. Our patients come from all walks of life, and we treat every single one with kindness, patience, and respect. We take time to listen, understand concerns, and make sure people feel heard.

    Team First:

    No one here says, "That's not my job." Whether you're sterilizing instruments, jumping in on a challenging procedure, or helping a teammate stay on schedule, everyone pitches in.

    We believe in mutual support, not ego. Great teams succeed because they care about each other—and we live that every day.

    Accountability:
    When something goes wrong, we don't point fingers—we take ownership. That mindset applies to clinical results, patient experiences, and team dynamics.

    We look for solutions, not excuses, and constantly ask, "How can I improve?" Growth starts with responsibility, and that's something we model from the top down.


    Humility & Coachability:
    We're proud to work with people who want to get better, not prove they already know it all. That means being open to feedback, eager to learn, and respectful of everyone's expertise—regardless of job title.

    What You'll Do

    Deliver high-quality general dentistry

    Collaborate with a tight-knit clinical and front office team to provide efficient, same-day care when possible

    Educate patients on treatment plans with empathy and clarity

    Build trust with families and patients of all backgrounds

    Embrace ongoing learning and mentorship with weekly clinical check-ins and case reviews

    Compensation & Benefits

    Daily Guarantee
    Collections-Based Pay (31% - 35%)
    401(k) - After 1 year
    In-Office Health Plan
    CE Allowance
    Partnership Track

    Why This Job Stands Out

    Mentorship:
    You won't be left to figure things out alone. Dr. Shull will set aside time for weekly one-on-one mentorship and collaboration, case reviews, and clinical coaching. He's proactive in helping you grow.

    Whether you're a new grad or a few years in, this is the kind of guidance that accelerates confidence and skill.


    Modern Tech + Steady Flow:
    You'll have access to high-end equipment, including CBCT, CEREC, PrimeMill, 3D printing, and more. We're not just tech-forward—we're tech-intentional, investing in tools that support efficient, high-quality care. With over 70 new patients per month and a loyal base of 3,500+, you'll stay busy and challenged. It's a great environment to sharpen your skills and deliver care you're proud of.

    Supportive, Low-Drama Culture:
    Our team operates with kindness, mutual respect, and a can-do attitude. Everyone from the front to the back jumps in to help each other without being asked. We value humility and don't tolerate egos, gossip, or blame. You'll feel it the moment you walk in—this is a team that has your back.

    Path to Partnership:
    For associates who want to grow into leadership, this practice offers partnership potential after two years. Dr. Shull is transparent about expectations and open about the business side of dentistry. You won't be strung along or kept in the dark—if partnership is your goal, we'll help you get there.

    Columbia, MO Location:

    Bear Creek Family Dental is located on the north side of town, perfectly positioned in an area with less saturation and strong patient demand.

    Columbia offers the perfect blend of small-town charm with big-city amenities, plus a lower cost of living. With parks, restaurants, live music, and a strong school system, it's a great place to put down roots.

    Whether you're single, starting a family, or looking for a place to grow your career, Columbia has something for you.

    Who We're Looking For

    Someone who is…..
    A team player who values collaboration and respect
    Someone who communicates clearly and listens actively
    Confident in bread-and-butter dentistry (crown preps, extractions, basic endo)
    Open to mentorship and willing to grow
    Bonus if you're interested in clear aligners, endo, or implants
