For dentists in private practice, most take home $70,000 to $120,000 per year. Dentists with less than 1 year of experience get paid around $95,000 while dentists with more than 20 years of experience get paid around $125,000. The median salary an hour for a dentist is $60. The median salary a year is $122,000. The lowest-paid dentists earn around $60,000 a year while the highest paid dentists get paid over $200,000 a year. The average dentist earns around $72,000.

Sorry, but that's not true. The average dentist does not makes way more than $72,000. Dentists are among one of the highest paid professions and 3 out of every 4 dentists are self-employed. The average Dentist makes around $130,000. That is if the are not self employed. Dentists who are self-employed usually take home $200,000 or more a year. A newly starting out dentist usually makes $80,000 to $117,000. As they earn more experience this rate will usually go up. Dentist's salary usually depends on where they live and their years of experience.

If a dentist takes on another dentist's practice is he responsible for their work and fees already paid?

If work has been done and paid for, the new dentist is not responsible for it, since that work was finished by a previous dentist. If the work was paid for but not completed, then the new dentist must finish the work and take joint responsibility for it. if it was paid for but not begun, then it is a new job passed straight to him.
