I know dentist compensation is a question that frequently comes up in this forum by dental and pre-dental students, so I found these numbers on page 9 and 10 of the report. To sum it up, GP owners have an average income of $290k and a median of $250k, while GP associates' average is $196k and median $180k.
Dentist VS Doctors (Salary, life style...etc) Hi, I am a forth year undergrad in Canada, and I am deciding between dentistry and medicine right now. At the beginning, I was only thinking about doing medicine, but then MCAT CARS turns out to be terrible, so I tried DAT (which is a lot easier than MCAT).
Associate Dentist: annual income varies b/c it's dependent upon what you do, rather then time. Average $400-600 right out of school. Potentially around $120k. Check the JADA. There was an article about dentist income this year. Ok REAL numbers now. My first year I made $500 per day for the first 3 months, then 25% of collections at corporate ...
Starting salary will vary by zip code, and the new doc's employer (assuming they are starting as associate). Honestly, I think working as an associate for longer than 1-2 years is wasted time. You will never be paid what you're worth unless you're an owner or very least partner in an office.
70% medicaid or sliding fee. 30% private pay or commercial insurance. Mostly extractions, operative, and removable. Moderate amount of endo. Work 40hr/wk. Daily production average $4400, pay is salary based on 31٪ previous year's production. Have S2S loan repayment (not factored into above mentioned salary)
Relating to salary I am getting starting dental associate offers for $200k for 4 days a week. You have to search for good offers and know what you are looking for, but to say you are going to be making $120k as a dentist for many years is setting the bar very low.
i'm going off on a tangent here, but the pay is certainly less than you would receive out in the private practice world, since you don't have bonuses and what not...but the advantages of being a dentist in the military, from what i've gathered, include: no insurance necessary, no malpractice, all of your patients are covered---so you can do whatever you need to do without having to worry about ...
These people are outliers. I also have heard of EM docs making $1m/year working 72 hrs/week in the boonies however that is probably less than 0.25% of EM docs (typical is 36 with 1 month vacation for $350-$450k). Nobody will start out making the top salary in their field and most people like to scale down their hours as they grow older.
200K-250K/month production or collections? You’re doing a nice job with overhead. Especially in a world where salary demands are rising and expenses are increasing. These numbers make sense though and aren’t anything crazy for an endo that owns. The key here is an associate that’s making you money on top of a low overhead.
Since pediatric dentists are specialist, obviously their salary will be higher. 2 weeks ago I visited a kids dentist at scarborough and what I felt is that dealing with children, especially in the case of tooth extraction or any other kind of dental treatment is really difficult. Usually children never tolerates pain and they become panic ...
