Dentist Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a dentist in Arizona?
To practice dentistry in Arizona, you must hold an active license from the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners. Licensure requires a DDS or DMD degree from a Commission on Dental Accreditation-approved program and passing both the National Board Dental Examinations and a clinical examination accepted by the Board. Arizona participates in the WREB clinical examination pathway. New graduates should apply directly through the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners and ensure DEA registration is in place before starting.
How much do dentists make in Arizona?
Dentists in Arizona earn a median of about $194,180 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $62,230 for the lowest 10% to over $336,320 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire dentists in Arizona?
Employers hiring dentists in Arizona right now include PDS Health, Gentle Dental, and DESORT STAFFING, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Arizona's mix of large DSO-affiliated group practices, community health networks, and tribal health programs creates a broad range of employer types across the state.
Which Arizona cities have the most dentist jobs?
Phoenix, Tucson, and Mesa account for the largest share of dentist openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates due to its sheer population size and concentration of group dental practices and health systems, while Tucson's University of Arizona Health Sciences presence and Scottsdale's affluent patient base both support steady clinic-level demand that draws consistent postings.
Are there remote dentist jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. Clinical dentistry is inherently hands-on, so the vast majority of roles require in-person patient care. About 0% of dentist openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those tend to involve non-clinical functions such as dental consulting, utilization review for dental insurance, or tele-triage roles attached to larger health systems rather than direct patient treatment.
How can I get hired as a dentist in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for an associate dentist position at a group practice or DSO, where mentorship and structured onboarding are built into the model. In Arizona, Dental Care Alliance and Aspen Dental both hire new graduates into associate roles. Community health centers and Federally Qualified Health Centers across Phoenix and Tucson also recruit new-grad dentists, sometimes offering loan repayment incentives. Having your Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners license in hand before applying, even if you are still awaiting your first position, gives a strong edge.
Where can I find and apply to dentist jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to dentist jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Search the listings for roles that match your specialty, experience level, and preferred location within Arizona, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
