These activities are assigned by the Department Chair in consultation with the individual faculty member.

Workload:
Because Pediatric Dentistry is a small department, with extensive commitments within the school, workload varies quarter to quarter. Specific workload and scheduling will be adjusted based on the faculty member's as well as the department's needs.

For part-time faculty in the teacher-clinician track, emphasis is placed on teaching activities, but participation in scholarship and service is encouraged

Minimum Qualifications:
Current Knowledge of:

• Current Edition of AAPD Pediatric Dentistry Reference Manual.
• Dental school educational processes.
• Restorative and preventive information and technique.

Education:

• DDS/DMD or international equivalent; degree earned from ADA-accredited school of dentistry is preferred.
• Certificate or Master's degree indicating successful completion of an ADA-accredited specialty training program in pediatric dentistry is required.
• Current, active license to practice dentistry.
• Valid CPR certification.

Preferred Qualifications:
GENERAL: Faculty should have sufficient motor function to execute movements essential to providing oral health care to patients.
SPECIFIC: Must possess the motor skills to perform palpation, percussion, auscultation and other diagnostic maneuvers, basic laboratory tests, dental preparations, and diagnostic procedures in a timely manner. Such actions require coordination of gross and fine muscular movements, equilibrium, and functional uses of the senses of touch and vision.
SPECIFIC: Must be able to perform basic life support including CPR, transfer and position patients with disabilities, physically restrain children who lack motor control, and position and reposition himself or herself around the patient and chair in sitting and standing positions for prolonged periods of time. Must be able to operate controls, use high-speed or low-speed dental handpieces for tooth preparation procedures, and use hand instrumentation including scalpels for surgical procedures. All of these skills must be performed within reasonable time frames.



Physical Requirements:


Special Instructions:
This recruitment is to establish a pool of qualified candidates, from which multiple short term, temporary appointments may be made.

Your application will be active for up to 6 months within the pooled position. If a job specific posting is created and you are interested in that specific position, please reapply directly to the posted position. Your previous pooled application will not automatically transfer to the new job opening.

Submission of materials does not guarantee consideration for future employment in openings of this type, since availability can be unpredictable and consideration competitive.

For in-person roles: This is an in-person role, and the successful candidate must be willing to relocate within California, preferably within 25 miles of the (City) Pacific campus.
For online roles: While this is an online position, Pacific's three campuses are within California and its faculty and staff are mostly California residents. For administrative purposes, California residents are preferred.
