Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (39.5%), education and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Lightforce Orthodontics, Inc. accounts for 97.7% of it on its own, with 10 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics clinicians in NJ 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 154 payments — averaging $390.32 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
