🦷 This Post Is Not For Most Dentists. Keep Scrolling If…
Keep scrolling if you're looking for a 'job.'
Keep scrolling if you think you've figured dentistry out.
Keep scrolling if you just want to clock in, clock out, and collect a paycheck.
This post is for a very specific person. If you're that person, you'll know by the end. And if you are — this might be the most important opportunity you'll ever see.
This Post IS For You If…
You graduated a few years ago. You took a job at a DSO because it made sense — steady patients, structure, training wheels.
You've worked hard. You've produced. You've put in long hours and hit your numbers.
But something's wrong.
You keep taking CE courses on endo, on restorative, on cosmetic dentistry — and then you go back to work on Monday and can't use any of it. They refer out the root canals. They refer out the implants. They refer out anything interesting.
You're fast now. You're efficient. But you're also… bored. And honestly? Burned out.
You hate the materials they make you use. You hate the 10-minute crown preps. You hate that every time you finally get a good assistant trained, they leave — and you start over with someone who doesn't know a slow-speed from a high-speed.
You've started to wonder: Is this what dentistry is? Is this all there is?
No. It's not.
You just haven't found the right place yet.
Here's What You Don't Know (Yet)
You think the problem is dentistry. It's not. The problem is the model.
DSOs make money by volume. High volume requires low complexity. Low complexity means you'll never do the cases you trained for.
You also don't realize that DSO patients are fundamentally different. They're there because of insurance. They want what's covered, not what's best. So even if the DSO let you do more — the patients wouldn't say yes.
There's another world. Fee-for-service private practice. Patients who seek you out because they want the best care, not because you're in-network. Patients who say yes to treatment because they value their health.
In that world, a 30% production cut means something completely different.
At your DSO:
You produce $100K/month
Insurance writes off $30K
You collect on $70K
Your 30% = $21,000
At Cedar Park Dental Wellness:
You produce $100K/month
No write-offs (fee-for-service)
You collect $100K
Your 30% = $30,000
Same percentage. 40%+ more income. And you actually get to do real dentistry.
What We've Built
My name is Dr. Regina Yunusov. I opened Cedar Park Dental Wellness in 2021 with zero patients. Not a single one.
I was told I was crazy. A startup practice? Fee-for-service only? In Cedar Park? With the most expensive technology money can buy? While raising three kids?
I didn't listen.
I briefly took PPO insurance to build the patient base. Then I dropped every single plan and went completely out-of-network.
People told me I'd fail. Instead, patients started seeking us out. From Austin. From Dallas. From out of state. Some fly in internationally.
We now have 100% five-star Google reviews. Not 4.9. Not 'mostly positive.' Every. Single. Review. Is. Five. Stars.
That doesn't happen by accident. It happens because of what we've built.
My Story (And Why It Matters To You)
I moved to the United States in 2010 not speaking a word of English. I had a dental degree from Russia that meant nothing here. I had to start completely over.
I learned English. I went back to dental school at Loma Linda — while raising two toddlers. I had my third child during school.
After graduating, I did exactly what you're probably doing now. I worked at a DSO for two years. I needed the steady income while I prepared to open my own practice. I know that world. I've lived it. The volume. The limitations. The frustration of knowing you could do more if they'd just let you.
But I never stopped learning. I traveled the world training with the best clinicians alive:
Dr. Istvan Urban — regenerative implant surgery
Professor Giovanni Zucchelli — periodontal plastic surgery
Dr. Jose Carlos da Rosa — Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration (IDR)
Dr. Stephen Buchanan — endodontics
Dr. Sonia Chopra — endodontics
Hundreds of hours of additional CE, every year, because I'm obsessed with getting better
I built the practice I wished existed when I was at that DSO. One where I could use the best technology, the best materials, and take the time to do things right.
Now the practice is growing. The demand is there. The procedures are there. And I can't handle it all by myself anymore.
I'm looking for someone to mentor. Someone who reminds me of myself. Someone who's hungry, humble, and a little bit obsessed with dentistry.
My credentials:
Dual dental degrees (Bashkir State Medical University, Russia + Loma Linda University, California)
One of only ~300 dentists worldwide certified in YOMI robotic-guided implant surgery
The only female robotic-certified dentist in the Austin area
Full scope of dentistry under one roof — implants, full-mouth rehab, bone grafting, sinus lifts, gum grafts, wisdom teeth, root canals, advanced restorative, cosmetic
I don't just want an associate. I want a protégé.
The Technology (You Won't Find This Anywhere Else)
I mean that literally. This setup doesn't exist anywhere else in the world.
✓ YOMI Robotic-Guided Implant System — surgical precision beyond human hands
✓ GentleWave Root Canal Technology — finally, you can do the endo you've been training for
✓ Dental Microscopes — every restorative and endodontic procedure, under magnification

✓ CBCT 3D Imaging — comprehensive diagnostics standard on every complex case

✓ Premium Materials Only — no 'insurance-grade' composites, no cheap labs
You'll use equipment most dentists only read about in journals.

If you're currently working in Austin, this is an easy transition. No relocation. No credentialing delays. Just step into a better environment.
Who This Is NOT For
Let me be very clear about who should NOT apply:
❌ Dentists who think they know everything. If you're not humble enough to learn, we're not a fit. I don't care how many years you've practiced.
❌ Dentists looking to 'start their own practice someday.' If you're just here to learn my systems and then leave to compete, don't waste both our time.
❌ Dentists motivated primarily by money. Yes, you'll make great money here. But if that's your #1 driver, you won't fit our culture. We're obsessed with clinical excellence first. The money follows.
❌ Dentists who aren't coachable. We need someone eager to grow, embrace feedback, and try new techniques. If you feel like you've already mastered dentistry, this isn't the right environment.
❌ Anyone looking for a 'job.' This isn't a job. It's a calling. It's a transformation. It's the opportunity to become the dentist you dreamed of being when you started dental school — before the DSO beat it out of you.
Who This IS For
✅ You have some experience under your belt — enough to be competent, but you're still hungry to grow
✅ You love restorative, endo, and aesthetic dentistry — and you're frustrated you can't do more of it
✅ You've invested in CE courses (especially endo) and you're dying to actually use what you've learned
✅ You've been on dental mission trips — because you care about more than just a paycheck
✅ You've proven yourself in a demanding environment but know you're capable of more
✅ You're burned out on volume but not on dentistry itself — you still love this profession, you just hate what it's become
✅ You want mentorship from someone who's been where you are and built something extraordinary
✅ You're humble, hungry, and a little obsessed with teeth — just like me
The Transformation
In 12 months, here's who you'll become:
A dentist who does root canals confidently, under a microscope, with GentleWave technology
A dentist who treatment plans complex cases and actually gets to execute them
A dentist who uses the best materials and never has to compromise
A dentist whose patients say yes because they trust you, not because insurance covers it
A dentist who's excited to go to work again
You'll go from burned out to lit up.
That's not marketing. That's what happens when you put a talented, hungry dentist in the right environment.
How To Apply
This is not a 'send your resume and we'll call you' situation.
If you've read this far and you know you're the person I'm describing, here's what to do:
Email [sign in to DentalPost to see current contact info] with:
Your resume or CV
A short note (can be casual) answering these three questions:
Why are you leaving your current position? (Be honest. I've been there.)
What's a procedure you've trained for but rarely get to do? (And how does that make you feel?)
What does your ideal Monday morning look like? (Not 'day off' — describe the work.)
Your preferred time for a callback
If your answers resonate, we'll schedule a call. If that goes well, we'll invite you for a paid working interview ($700-800/day) so we can both see if this is the right fit.
No pressure. No games. Just two dentists figuring out if we should build something together.

Final Thought
You didn't go to dental school to do assembly-line dentistry.
You didn't take all those CE courses to watch specialists do the work you trained for.
You didn't sacrifice four years of your life (and six figures of debt) to be bored and burned out.
You became a dentist because you wanted to change people's lives. You wanted to master a craft. You wanted to be great.
That version of you still exists. It's just been suffocated by a system designed to extract production, not cultivate excellence.
I'm offering you a way out.
This opportunity won't be posted forever. When I find the right person, it's gone.
If you're that person — don't wait.
This isn't just a job. It's the practice you didn't know existed. And it's looking for you.
