What oral surgeons make
Established

New associate
$200,000
Owner of a busy office
$700,000
Job Bank has no page for oral and maxillofacial surgeons. Its closest page, surgeons, shows a median of about $419,000 a year in gross billings (low $144,000, high $767,000), but that covers medical surgeons paid by the province. Oral surgeons mostly run private offices paid by patients and dental insurance, with hospital work billed to the province. This range is an estimate: new associates around $200,000, established surgeons roughly $400,000, busy owners well above that. Solid Canadian pay data for this specialty is thin.
