Fixed Term Consultant Orthodontist

Applications are invited for a consultant orthodontist post to join our multi-disciplinary team in the Orthodontic & Maxillofacial Unit at Lincoln County Hospital on a full-time basis (part-time considered).

Orthodontics at ULTH provides a clinical service across the beautiful county of Lincolnshire, working in close cooperation with the Maxillofacial surgeons and the regional cleft lip and palate team to deliver excellent patient centred care. The department also has a long history of clinical teaching with a trainee based on the Lincoln site.

Applicants must be on the GDC specialist list in Orthodontics and hold intercollegiate speciality fellowship examination in Orthodontics or equivalent. A full person specification is available within the job description.

This consultant position is a replacement post based at Lincoln County Hospital or Grantham and District Hospital, working across both sites within job-planned activity. This post involves clinical supervision of our specialist registrar trainee who works at Lincoln Hospital and Charles Clifford Dental Hospital, Sheffield. Clinical work focuses on patients with severe malocclusions and those requiring multi-disciplinary care, but some less complex cases are also treated by our Dentist with Special Interest (DwSI) colleagues.

The appointee will be expected, in conjunction with his/her colleagues, to provide a comprehensive, county-wide Orthodontic service to the population of Lincolnshire.
