How we calculate this

  • DirectDental figures use jobs published in the last 12 months with listed pay, not counting temp shifts.
  • Each job counts once, at the middle of its pay range or its exact amount. Yearly pay is divided by 2,080 hours, monthly pay by 173 hours, and daily pay by 8 hours. Repeat posts of the same job count once.
  • We show DirectDental figures only when a place has at least 10 jobs; otherwise the page shows government data.
  • Last updated October 30, 2026.
  • These figures are estimates for general information and are not a guarantee of pay.
