Chief Clinical Officer | Wynkoop Dentistry | Denver, Colorado

Looking for Your Next Chapter in Dentistry?

Perhaps you've built and sold a successful practice.

Perhaps you're tired of the physical demands of full-time clinical dentistry.

Perhaps you've spent decades learning what makes a great dental practice and want to help the next generation succeed.

If that sounds like you, keep reading.

Wynkoop Dentistry is seeking a Chief Clinical Officer to help lead and develop our growing clinical organization. We are looking for an experienced dentist who has a passion for mentoring providers, improving systems, developing teams, and helping practices reach their full potential.

This is an opportunity to use the knowledge you've spent a lifetime building without spending your days running from operatory to operatory.

Who We Think Will Thrive In This Role

Our ideal candidate:

• Has at least 5 years of clinical experience
• Ideally has owned or operated a successful dental practice
• Has experience integrating technology into clinical workflows
• Has experience with CAD/CAM workflows
• Has completed advanced continuing education through organizations such as Dawson Academy, Pankey Institute, Spear Education, Kois Center, Seattle Study Club, or similar programs
• Understands comprehensive treatment planning and foundational occlusion
• Has worked alongside implant, surgery, airway, sleep, orthodontic, or specialty providers and understands how those workflows integrate into a comprehensive practice
• Loves mentoring dentists, hygienists, assistants, and administrative team members
• Sees potential in people and enjoys helping them grow
• Understands both the clinical and business sides of dentistry
• Is excited by the opportunity to help build systems that can be replicated across future locations

We are especially interested in speaking with:

• Former practice owners
• Dentists who have sold their practices
• Experienced clinicians who want to reduce chairside responsibilities

What You'll Do

• Lead provider development, coaching, and accountability systems
• Improve treatment acceptance and patient communication
• Support comprehensive treatment planning and interdisciplinary care
• Develop clinical systems and workflows
• Partner with hygiene leadership to improve outcomes and consistency
• Monitor clinical quality and chart audit performance
• Conduct provider performance reviews and quarterly development meetings
• Help identify and develop future clinical leaders
• Assist ownership in evaluating technology, systems, and growth opportunities

What Makes This Role Different

You'll have direct influence over:

• Clinical strategy
• Provider development
• Comprehensive case growth
• Hygiene systems
• Patient experience
• Clinical culture

This is not a corporate oversight role.

This is a hands-on leadership position where your experience directly impacts the growth of providers, the quality of patient care, and the future direction of the organization.

You will help create the systems, mentorship pathways, and clinical standards that allow exceptional dentistry to scale without sacrificing quality.

What Success Looks Like

• Associates become more confident and productive
• Treatment acceptance improves
• Comprehensive care continues to grow
• Implant, restorative, and interdisciplinary services expand
• Hygiene and doctor collaboration strengthens
• Clinical quality remains exceptional
• Patients receive a consistent, high-level experience
• Future leaders are developed from within the organization

Compensation

This position is designed for someone who wants meaningful impact, flexibility, and the opportunity to shape the future of an exceptional organization. We anticipate that candidates for this role are not primarily motivated by income.

Compensation includes:

• Base salary
• Quarterly performance bonuses tied to measurable outcomes
• Future opportunities for percentage-based compensation tied to organizational growth and performance
• Significant influence over the strategic direction of the clinical organization

We envision this role as a long-term leadership partnership with substantial growth potential as the organization expands.

About Wynkoop Dentistry
