How much do particular dental procedures cost?
The ADA cannot quote fees for dental procedures. Survey data from a nationwide random sample of dentists who were asked to record the fee most often charged for different dental procedures are collected and published in the ADA’s Survey of Dental Fees report. The report provides information on what dentists who completed the survey typically charge, but these are not “recommended” fees from the ADA, or an ADA standard for fees DISCLAIMER: The published survey data should not be interpreted as constituting a fee schedule in any way, and should not be used for that purpose. The ADA is forbidden by federal law to set or recommend fees. Dentists establish their own fees based on their individual practice and market considerations. Related item: 2009 Survey of Dental Fees. Item code: SDF-2009/SDF-2009D. Available as a free download to ADA members. Because the survey is conducted in odd-number years, please note that this report is published every other year; it is not updated annually.
