The dashboard below represents wages and job counts (or supply) of dental hygienists, dental assistants, and general practitioner dentists in each state for the years 2001-2022. Wages are hourly for hygienists and assistants and annual for general dentists. For more information on how we adjusted earnings data for inflation, see our Data & Methods (PDF) document.
