Dental assistant salary?

i was wondering what the average salary is in massachusetts for a certified and a non-certified dental assistant?

Dental assistant salary?
Median hourly earnings of dental assistants were $13.62 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $11.06 and $16.65 an hour. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $9.11, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $19.97 an hour.





Benefits vary substantially by practice setting and may be contingent upon full-time employment. According to the American Dental Association (ADA), almost all full-time dental assistants employed by private practitioners received paid vacation time. The ADA also found that 9 out of 10 full-time and part-time dental assistants received dental coverage.
Reply:The median expected salary for a typical Dental Assistant in the United States is $33,559. Depends on your area. What area of Massachusetts? You can check out this site to go into further detail. (www.salary.com)
Reply:the dental assistant salary is about 17,000 a year or less depending on the dentist you work for and even less if he is cheap. A dental hygenist however makes about 24,000 a year or more because you can contract you service to dental offices.
