Half of dental nurses in Wales earn between £16,199 and £29,798. Earning above £29,798 puts you in the top quarter of the profession.

ONS suppresses the detailed spread for this occupation at regional level, so this range describes the wider “Caring Personal Services” group in Wales.

ONS Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings, 2025 provisional

ONS publishes a sampling error of 13.6% for this figure and asks that anything above 10% is treated as imprecise — too few people in this region answered the survey for this occupation. The figure is shown because it is the one ONS published, but it is not firm enough to rank Wales against anywhere else, so this page doesn't.
