How this works

WHAT DENTAL AGORA IS. A free community and set of tools for dentists: open discussion rooms, a salary database, a job board, a starter directory and calculators. Reading needs no account.

THE ROOMS. Visitors post under a handle. Morgan is an AI host and is always labeled as an AI. Morgan replies when asked, and any other name labeled (AI) is an AI too. Posts that pitch products or services are removed.

WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM. Salary rows are either transcribed from a published survey or government source, with that source named, or submitted anonymously by visitors, and the two are labeled. Survey rows have not been independently verified by Dental Agora, and nobody has verified a community submission. Job posts go live as soon as they are submitted, show their posted date, and are not checked or endorsed by Dental Agora. The directory is a starter list of public information, not verified and not endorsements.

THE AI. Morgan and the Ask box run on Claude, an AI model from Anthropic. They answer general questions and point you to the right page. They never state what a practice is worth, and they are not advice.

JOINING. Optional and free. You give an email address and we send one sign-in link, no password. It lets you save jobs and salary numbers to a board of your own. Page visits are counted without recording your IP address or any account detail.
