Default Working as a dentist in Australia

Hi,

I am a British Dentist looking to emigrate to Australia, probably Melbourne, with my family. I was wondering if there were any dentists out there who could advise me on dentistry in Australia. I have already registered with the Australian Dental Council so that is one thing out of the way.
I currently work in a part NHS/Part Private practice in England. Are there many fundamental differences between dentistry in the UK and dentistry in Australia? What is the average percentage that an associate would be paid? Would anybody recommend any particular agencies to go through/ to avoid when looking for a job? Basically any advice would be appreciated!!

Cheers in advance

I would imagine you will now be a very rich man moving to Australia. You can now quadruple whatever you charged in the UK, and when you have British immigrants show up for an appointment, you can tell them that the work they have had done is substandard and charge them handsomely to fix it.

Most dentists I have seen in Perth have their own dental business and do very well out of it. Have a look on www.seek.com.au:

where you will lots of opportunities and some agency names.

For a dentist in Australia, the path from your workplace to your home in a great suburb is paved with gold.
