Dentistry Career Context

Of the 50 active Dentist listings this role was benchmarked against, 2% are remote, 56% have no call, 58% require no weekends.

The cost-of-living index for Texas is 97.1 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$238k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $245k in an average-cost state. 57.7% of Texas clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).
