Careers at Cumberland Dental Specialists

Join a team built on care, continuity, and growth.

At Cumberland Dental Specialists, great care has never been about one person. It’s about a team that shows up together, remembers the details, and treats every family like their own.

For over 40 years, our practice has served the Cumberland community with warmth, consistency, and a deep belief that people do their best work when they feel supported.

OUR CULTURE

Why Pediatric Dentistry at Cumberland is Different

Great dental care starts long before a patient sits in the chair, it starts with a team that genuinely looks out for one another. Here, hospitality matters as much as clinical skill, and the small, human moments are the ones we measure ourselves by.

Legacy

A trusted Cumberland practice that has served local families since 1982, three generations and counting.

Excellence

Specialized pediatric and orthodontic care, backed by modern tools like digital imaging, iTero scanning, and Invisalign expertise.

Community

A local practice built on long-term relationships, not corporate turnover, patients return because the team does too.

Hospitality

A warm, patient-first experience that feels personal from the first phone call to the final smile.

What you'll find here

We're committed to a workplace where people are respected, supported, and given real room to develop their skills, clinically and personally.

Room to learn

Consistent,
family-centered care

Be part of a practice where patients return year after year, and families are known by name, not chart number.

Purposeful work

Help children build confidence, support anxious patients, and guide teens through important smile milestones.

Modern tools,
human approach

Technology supports the work, but relationships, not screens, lead the patient experience.

No surprises, ever

Clear expectations, honest communication, and a team culture that means exactly
what it says.

What it’s like to work here

Mentorship, not micromanagement

Mentorship, not micromanagement

Dr. Ben teaches at Tufts University, and that same mentoring mindset shapes how the team learns and grows inside the practice.

Stability you can count on

While turnover is common in healthcare, Cumberland has built a team that stays. Some team members have been part of the practice for more than 20 years.

A mission that matters

The Chan family has served this community for over 40 years. When you work here, you become part of that legacy.

Your voice matters

From office improvements to patient care innovations, team input helps shape the practice.

A high-touch culture

Personal attention is part of how Cumberland cares for patients, and how the practice supports its own team.

Our work

Care that follows families through every stage.

Our team supports children, teens, and families across pediatric dentistry and orthodontics, from first visits and prevention to braces, Invisalign, and long-term smile confidence.

Pediatric Dentistry

Building healthy habits, early.

We help kids build confidence and positive dental experiences from an early age. Our approach is prevention-first, gentle, and tailored to each child's age and needs.

Orthodontics

Honest guidance, every step.

We guide families through early intervention, braces, Invisalign, and teen orthodontic care, with honest recommendations, because not every child needs braces right away.
