What is locum tenens?

In Latin, locum tenens means “to hold one’s place”. When you work as a locum tenens dentist, you will take the place of another dentist on a short- or long-term basis. Locum tenens dentists help fill staffing shortages at dental practices due to vacations, illness, leaves of absence, or even during peak business seasons.
