Pediatric Dentist- Associate

Roanoke Pediatric Dentistry, built and managed by Dr. Corey Sheppard, is excited to welcome a full-time Pediatric Dentist to our thriving practice. We’re looking for someone energetic, committed, and passionate about caring for kids — a dentist who wants to grow in their career while having fun along the way.

At our practice, you’ll find a supportive environment where mentorship, teamwork, and advanced technology come together to create an exceptional experience for both patients and providers. Dr. Sheppard is Board Certified, and with the help of an experienced and welcoming staff, we’ve built a practice that blends clinical excellence with a positive workplace culture.

We’re proud to offer a wide range of services, including laser dentistry and laser frenectomy for tongue and lip ties, cosmetic pediatric dentistry with zirconia crowns, and OR cases through partnerships with local hospitals. Our clinic also houses certified Level 1 Surgicenter operating rooms, equipped with anesthesiologists for in-office GA services. With a recent expansion into a fully renovated, state-of-the-art facility, this is an incredible opportunity to step into a practice designed for growth and innovation.

As an associate, you’ll enjoy competitive compensation and benefits, a clear pathway to ownership, and the freedom to make your own treatment decisions with the support of a respected partner and experienced team. We’re committed to doctor ownership and to making sure you have the tools and training you need to thrive.

Outside the office, Roanoke offers the perfect balance of adventure and community. Whether it’s hiking the iconic Appalachian Trail, kayaking on the Roanoke River, enjoying weekends at Smith Mountain Lake, or exploring the lively downtown arts, music, and food scene, you’ll quickly see why this Blue Ridge Mountain city is such a special place to call home.

This is your chance to grow your career, love what you do, and have fun with a supportive, energetic team by your side.
