Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — travel and lodging (53.7%), food and beverage and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 16 manufacturers reported payments, led by Stryker at 40.8% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $4,143 and has fallen 96.9% since, to $129 in 2025. Among oral and maxillofacial surgery clinicians in MS with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 115 payments — averaging $86.43 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
