What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $424,709 of the $473,424 with a category attached, or 89.7%. Dentsply Sirona Inc accounts for 89.2% of it on its own, with 13 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $164,035, more than ten times the $12,216 reported in 2019. Among endodontics clinicians in IL 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 321 payments — averaging $1474.84 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
