General Dentist

Job Description

We are delighted to announce a fantastic opportunity for a General Dentist to join our team at Manor House Dental & Implant Clinic in St Austell, Cornwall.

This role has become available as we begin the search for a successor to Canda Hedges, one of our most cherished and longstanding Dentists. Canda bought the practice in 1996, started working clinically in 1997, and has since built an exceptionally loyal patient base over three decades, generously sharing her extensive knowledge with the entire Manor House team.

After an outstanding career, 30 of those years dedicated to Manor House Dental, Canda is now preparing for a well‑deserved retirement. We are therefore seeking a committed and compassionate General Dentist to continue her legacy and provide excellent care to our patients.
