Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $308,719 of the $332,306 with a category attached, or 92.9%. Implant Direct Sybron International LLC accounts for 75.4% of it on its own, with 14 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $104,814 and has fallen 90.9% since, to $9,500 in 2025. Among dentist clinicians in CA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 177 payments — averaging $1877.43 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
