Orthodontist

Schubbs Dental Clinics has been practising in Lagos since 1988. Three clinics, in Apapa, Ikeja and Ikoyi, 18 dental units between them. We offer the full range of orthodontic treatment: fixed braces, lingual braces, clear aligners and habit breakers. We are hiring an orthodontist to run consultations, plan cases and carry them through to retention.

You will consult, examine and diagnose, then build the treatment plan and see it through, whether the case runs on fixed appliances, aligners or another corrective approach. You will review progress at each visit and adjust when a case moves differently to how it was projected. Retention and post-treatment follow-up are part of the case, not the end of it. You will explain the treatment, the oral hygiene it demands and the aftercare to every patient, keep records current as you go, and hold to our infection control and patient safety standards. Where a case needs a restorative dentist, an oral surgeon or another colleague, you work with them directly.
