Results for some Providing-Performer breakdowns have been supressed due to small sample size. Due to a relatively small sample population in Wales figures must be treated with caution as the values are subject to more uncertainty, and even a small change can have a noticeable effect on the averages.

All self-employed primary care dentists
For all self-employed primary care dentists in 2018/19 average taxable income from NHS and private dentistry was £64,200, a 1.4 per cent increase from £63,400 in 2017/18, which is not statistically significant.
Earnings and expenses from NHS and private dentistry varied by contract type, whereby those working under GDS arrangements had the lowest average taxable income compared to those working under PDS or Mixed GDS/PDS arrangements.
Changes in the distribution of the population across dental and/or contract type will inevitably have some effect upon the estimates for gross earnings, total expenses, taxable income and earning to expenses ratio (EER).
