“2015 is going to be a mixed bag of macro and micro economic fluctuations,” Sikka said. “As a big data company, we are noticing that there is a downward trend emerging in some of the key dental indicators. So, it becomes extremely important that fees are carefully evaluated and aligned for every dental practice with the profitability of that practice. Every dental practice is unique and how you practice is what determines your profitability even more than where you practice.”

As a note about the figures, the data is broken into the 50^th, 70^th, and 90^th percentile, meaning the 50th percentile is the fee below which 50 percent of the observations may be found, etc.
