Employment and concentration

BLS counted 760 Prosthodontists jobs nationally in May 2024, 0.00% of all U.S. employment in the survey. For this occupation BLS publishes state wage estimates for 1 states but suppresses the state employment counts and location quotients, because the sample behind each state cell is too small to disclose. The state table below is therefore a wage table: it shows what the work pays state by state, and the national ladder above is the employment picture. Any site quoting a state headcount for this occupation is estimating outside the published survey.

BLS top-codes or suppresses part of this occupation's national ladder, so the published center is the median of $239,200 or more and the mean of $258,660. The state table below is the more useful negotiating document: it shows how far the same job title travels across the 1 states with published estimates.

Metropolitan areas

Metro estimates for Prosthodontists do not exist in the May 2024 OEWS release, so this page does not invent them. Where a salary site shows a city wage for this occupation, it is modeling from other data; the published geography here stops at the state table.

What the median pay looks like as a budget

The median Prosthodontists paycheck, gross, is $9,200 every two weeks on an annual $239,200 or more, which is $19,933 a month and $4,600 a week. The top of this ladder is top-coded by BLS (shown as $239,200+), so the full experience premium cannot be printed from the published table; the 25th percentile, $232,000, is the firmest anchor for an early-career offer. Gross is a starting point, not a budget: the paycheck calculator nets it down by state, an offer comparison lives in the salary calculator, and the raise vs inflation calculator separates a real raise from a nominal one.
