About Us
We are a well-established, sole-practitioner orthodontic practice in NW Calgary seeking an Associate Orthodontist to join our dynamic team, with the goal of a gradual transition to ownership for the right candidate.
Our practice is rooted in continuous growth and innovation. We are passionate about improving not just smiles, but overall health and well-being. We embrace new technologies and therapies and support ongoing education for all team members. Our approach goes beyond conventional orthodontics, and while we treat patients of all ages, we focus heavily on early comprehensive treatment, optimizing facial growth, airway development, sleep quality, and long-term stability.
As awareness of our specialized approach has grown, so has demand, we currently have a 10-month new patient wait-list and are eager to reduce this to a more manageable time frame.
Two years ago, we expanded into a larger, modern space (in the same building where Dr. Rix has practised for over 20 years), complete with beautiful views of the Rocky Mountains.
Responsibilities:
- Evaluating patients to diagnose and develop comprehensive treatment plans.
- Staying up to date with the latest advancements in orthodontics to provide optimal patient care.
- Performing clinical procedures and ensure optimal care and improvement of dental alignment, function, and over-all health.
- Conducting regular check-ups to monitor treatment progress and make necessary adjustments.
- Interpreting and reporting on CBCT imaging and diagnostic tests to determine the best treatment options.

What You Offer:
- In good standing with the College of Dental Surgeons of Alberta and the Alberta Dental Association.
- Passionate about comprehensive, evidence-based orthodontic care.
- Strong communicator with excellent interpersonal skills focused on patient care.
- Highly organized and detail-oriented individual used to a fast paced working environment.
- Prior experience in orthodontics is an asset, but not required, we are happy to train the right person.
What We offer:
Our team cultivates a positive, friendly, and collaborative environment, driven by a dedicated group of experienced professionals. With a strong and rapidly growing patient base, including a 10-month wait-list, we are committed to delivering top-tier care. We leverage the latest technologies, such as in-house 3D printing, SleepImage testing, digital workflows, and laser therapy, to enhance our services and treatment outcomes. Additionally, we provide mentorship and support for continuing education, ensuring that our team remains at the forefront of advancements in the field.
