How do you become a dentist in New York?
To become a licensed dentist in New York you must hold a Doctor of Dental Surgery or Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from an accredited institution, pass both the National Board Dental Examinations and a clinical licensing examination accepted by the New York State Education Department, and submit a licensure application through the Office of the Professions. Many candidates also complete a general practice or specialty residency before entering the New York job market.
How much do dentists make in New York?

Which companies hire dentists in New York?
Employers hiring dentists in New York right now include Aspen Dental, Sun River Health, and DESORT STAFFING, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. New York's mix of large health systems, federally qualified community health centers, and multi-location group practices means openings appear across both urban cores and underserved rural areas of the state.
Which New York cities have the most dentist jobs?
Brooklyn, New York, and Bronx have the most dentist openings in New York. New York City dominates by volume because of its dense population, concentration of academic medical centers, and the number of large group practices headquartered there, while Buffalo and Albany generate consistent demand through regional health systems and community health organizations that serve broader upstate populations.
Are there remote dentist jobs in New York?
Yes, but they're rare. About 2% of dentist openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting the hands-on clinical nature of most dental work. The roles most likely to carry any remote component are in dental consulting, insurance review, or tele-dentistry triage programs rather than direct patient care positions.
How can I get hired as a dentist in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing a general practice residency or advanced education in general dentistry program, which many New York hospitals and health systems offer specifically for new graduates. Northwell Health, NYC Health and Hospitals, and large federally qualified health centers across the state run these programs and often convert residents into associate dentist roles. Holding an active New York State dental license and any experience in a dental assistant or student clinic role strengthens your candidacy significantly.
