Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $489,529 of the $583,298 with a category attached, or 83.9%. Sonendo Inc accounts for 84.8% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $155,393 and has fallen 90.3% since, to $15,000 in 2025. Among endodontics 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.

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments
Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

| SS White Burs LLC | 8 | $88,500 |
What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
