About these numbers
How this is counted: DentalScouts reads the hourly rate each dental practice published on its own career site. A listing with a range counts at its midpoint. Listings from the last 180 days are included, so a rate a practice advertised in spring counts even if that opening has closed. Rates outside $15–$150/hr are dropped as data errors. Nothing is estimated, and salaried or per-diem listings are not converted to hourly.
