The Department of Clinical Dentistry invites application for a full-time tenure or clinical track position in the Section of Pediatric Dentistry at the Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine (SIU SDM).

This position’s responsibilities include all aspects of didactic and clinical education in pediatric dentistry for both predoctoral students and postdoctoral Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residents. The Section of Pediatric Dentistry provides instruction, supervision and treatment in the Main Clinic of the SIU-SDM, the East St. Louis Clinic of the SIU-SDM, the Surgical Center in our Advanced Care Clinic, and at Alton Memorial Hospital. The candidate must be eligible for privileges at these facilities.

The ideal candidate will be comfortable in providing lectures in a pre-clinical setting and supervision and instruction in the care of a diverse pediatric patient population who present with varying degrees of challenges in their lives.

The SIU-SDM provides exceptional value in dental education. Students benefit from the latest technology in today's oral health care field; a state-of-the-art clinic; and the lowest dental school tuition in Illinois.

The small student body and intimate environment promote excellent student-to-faculty interaction. Graduates are prepared to be among the best general practitioners of dentistry in the country. The SIU School of Dental Medicine is the only dental school in Illinois that is outside the Chicago metropolitan area, and within a 200-mile radius of the St. Louis area.
