Dental Working Patterns Survey findings: earnings and expenses estimates by weekly hours devoted to dentistry and gender
It is important to note that the small sample sizes for each subgroup mean that the values are subject to more uncertainty, as extreme values can have noticeable effects on the averages. Due to small sample sizes, results have been suppressed for some subgroups.
