Abstract

The literature on practice characteristics of women dentists is discussed to identify the information available on how women practice dentistry. Few reports have been published that describe or analyze such data. Of the available studies, few are national in scope and even fewer compare male and female age-matched graduation cohorts. With the increase in the number of women dentists, human resource planning and analyses and design of educational curricula will require improved knowledge of the practice characteristics of men and women dentists.
