Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (44.3%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 5 manufacturers reported payments, led by Sonendo Inc at 54.1% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $44,499 and has fallen 96.5% since, to $1,542 in 2025. Among endodontics clinicians in MD 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 235 payments — averaging $748.88 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
