Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (44.7%), consulting fees and royalties or licence payments — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 13 manufacturers reported payments, led by Henry Schein, Inc. at 31.6% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $50,974 and has fallen 86.9% since, to $6,667 in 2025. Among dentist clinicians in NC 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 111 payments — averaging $875.61 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
