WageScope divides the published Dental Hygienists median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 29-1292 and BLS area 48.
Questions, answered
Dental Hygienists pay in Texas: common questions
What is the median wage for Dental Hygienists in Texas?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $99,240 per year for Dental Hygienists in Texas. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.
Is Dental Hygienists pay higher in Texas than nationally?
Texas's published median was 1.2% above the U.S. median for the same occupation and release.
Does the wage estimate adjust for cost of living in Texas?
No. The BLS wage is nominal. WageScope separately shows BEA's 2024 all-items Regional Price Parity of 97.1 and a transparent national-price-dollar proxy.
How many Dental Hygienists jobs does BLS estimate in Texas?
BLS published an employment estimate of 16,380 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Dental Hygienists median in Texas at $99,240 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 29-1292 and BLS area 48.
BLS lists 16,380 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $96,240 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Texas's Dental Hygienists median is 1.2% above the U.S. Dental Hygienists median of $98,100 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 29-1292 and area 48. SOC 29-1292 names Dental Hygienists. Area 48 names Texas. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-1292/48 row reports 16,380 wage and salary jobs, 1.16 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.81 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-1292/48, the annual median is $99,240 per year, while the matching mean is $96,240 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 48 facts behind this Dental Hygienists page
Area 48 reports 14,071,160 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $65,750. Its annual median is $48,620. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.2%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-1292 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Texas runs from $27,250 at the 10th percentile to $125,220 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,370. The median is $48,620. The 75th percentile is $77,840. This is a place check, not a pay range for Dental Hygienists.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 48. They do not show related skills or a path into Dental Hygienists.
1. Area 48, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 460,530 jobs, $27,740 annual median, 32.73 jobs per 1,000, and 1.32 location quotient.
2. Area 48, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 431,310 jobs, $103,230 annual median, 30.65 jobs per 1,000, and 1.36 location quotient.
3. Area 48, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 341,640 jobs, $30,800 annual median, 24.28 jobs per 1,000, and 0.97 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Texas wage ladder for Dental Hygienists
The 10th percentile is $71,530 per year. The 25th percentile is $85,280 per year. The median is $99,240 per year. The 75th percentile is $107,320 per year. The 90th percentile is $117,890 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $85,280 per year to $107,320 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $46,360. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Texas has a annual median of $99,240 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $98,100 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Texas. Texas is 1.2% above the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are bench marks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
Texas ranks 17 of 52 among states and territories with a published annual median for Dental Hygienists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 17 of 52 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
14. Arizona has a Dental Hygienists median of $101,010 per year, 4,530 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.98.
15. Connecticut has a Dental Hygienists median of $100,690 per year, 3,240 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.33.
16. Massachusetts has a Dental Hygienists median of $100,640 per year, 6,850 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.31.
18. Delaware has a Dental Hygienists median of $98,910 per year, 750 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.09.
Pay leaders
Where Dental Hygienists medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 29-1292, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. District of Columbia has the highest published median in this set, at $137,220 per year. Texas sits at $99,240 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Dental Hygienists is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. District of Columbia has a Dental Hygienists median of $137,220 per year, or $37,980 above Texas. BLS lists 320 jobs there, compared with 16,380 in Texas. The location quotient is 0.31.
2. Alaska has a Dental Hygienists median of $132,690 per year, or $33,450 above Texas. BLS lists 790 jobs there, compared with 16,380 in Texas. The location quotient is 1.7.
3. Washington has a Dental Hygienists median of $131,160 per year, or $31,920 above Texas. BLS lists 6,330 jobs there, compared with 16,380 in Texas. The location quotient is 1.24.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Dental Hygienists jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Dental Hygienists in this same-source set, at 24,500 jobs. Texas has 16,380. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. California has 24,500 estimated Dental Hygienists jobs, a gap of 8,120 jobs from Texas. Its median is $124,930 per year, or $25,690 above Texas. Its location quotient is 0.94.
2. Texas has 16,380 estimated Dental Hygienists jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from Texas. Its median is $99,240 per year, or $0 above Texas. Its location quotient is 0.81.
3. New York has 13,660 estimated Dental Hygienists jobs, a gap of 2,720 jobs from Texas. Its median is $106,130 per year, or $6,890 above Texas. Its location quotient is 0.98.
Local-share leaders
Where Dental Hygienists takes the largest share of local jobs
Alaska has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 1.7. Texas has 0.81. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Dental Hygienists is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. Alaska has a location quotient of 1.7, a gap of 0.89 from Texas. BLS lists 790 Dental Hygienists jobs and a median of $132,690 per year, or $33,450 above Texas.
2. Idaho has a location quotient of 1.68, a gap of 0.87 from Texas. BLS lists 2,060 Dental Hygienists jobs and a median of $94,650 per year, or $4,590 below Texas.
3. Utah has a location quotient of 1.52, a gap of 0.71 from Texas. BLS lists 3,780 Dental Hygienists jobs and a median of $91,120 per year, or $8,120 below Texas.
Job scale and share
How common Dental Hygienists is in Texas
BLS lists 16,380 Dental Hygienists jobs in Texas. It also lists 1.16 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 0.81. A value of 1 means Dental Hygienists has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is lower than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
The all-occupations median in Texas is $48,620 per year. The Dental Hygienists median is $99,240 per year. Dental Hygienists is 104.1% above the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Texas. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Dental Hygienists. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Project Management Specialists, SOC 13-1082, has a Texas median of $98,440 per year. BLS lists 138,960 jobs and a location quotient of 1.44.
2. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Texas median of $95,970 per year. BLS lists 271,380 jobs and a location quotient of 0.89.
3. General and Operations Managers, SOC 11-1021, has a Texas median of $103,230 per year. BLS lists 431,310 jobs and a location quotient of 1.36.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Texas
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Texas table, at 460,530 jobs. Dental Hygienists has 16,380 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 14,071,160. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Dental Hygienists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 460,530 jobs in Texas, a gap of 444,150 from Dental Hygienists. Its median is $27,740 per year, or $71,500 below Dental Hygienists. Its location quotient is 1.32.
2. General and Operations Managers has 431,310 jobs in Texas, a gap of 414,930 from Dental Hygienists. Its median is $103,230 per year, or $3,990 above Dental Hygienists. Its location quotient is 1.36.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Texas
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Texas role table, at $132,150 per year. Dental Hygienists has $99,240 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,620 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. Software Developers has a median of $132,150 per year in Texas, or $32,910 above Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 163,880 jobs, compared with 16,380 for Dental Hygienists. Its location quotient is 1.07.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $103,230 per year in Texas, or $3,990 above Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 431,310 jobs, compared with 16,380 for Dental Hygienists. Its location quotient is 1.36.
3. Project Management Specialists has a median of $98,440 per year in Texas, or $800 below Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 138,960 jobs, compared with 16,380 for Dental Hygienists. Its location quotient is 1.44.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Texas
Customer Service Representatives has the highest location quotient in the bounded Texas role table, at 1.44. Dental Hygienists has 0.81. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Dental Hygienists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Customer Service Representatives has a location quotient of 1.44 in Texas, a gap of 0.63 from Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 337,170 jobs and a median of $40,420 per year, or $58,820 below Dental Hygienists.
2. Project Management Specialists has a location quotient of 1.44 in Texas, a gap of 0.63 from Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 138,960 jobs and a median of $98,440 per year, or $800 below Dental Hygienists.
3. General and Operations Managers has a location quotient of 1.36 in Texas, a gap of 0.55 from Dental Hygienists. BLS lists 431,310 jobs and a median of $103,230 per year, or $3,990 above Dental Hygienists.
Price-level view
What $99,240 may mean after the Texas price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Texas is 97.1. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 2.9% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $99,240 Dental Hygienists median by 97.1 divided by 100. The result is $102,249 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 96.5. Goods are 98.1. Utilities are 87.5. Other services are 97.1. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Dental Hygienists row is 9%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.3%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 16,380 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $96,240 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Dental Hygienists. It uses a Texas place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $99,240 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
What the Dental Hygienists row for Texas does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 16,380 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.81 is not a growth score. Rank 17 of 52 is not a place score. The 97.1 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-1292 in BLS area 48. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
