The 1985 ADA Survey of Dental Practice was used to compare practice characteristics of 1,414 males and 110 females who graduated from dental school in or after 1975. Similarities and differences in practice, patient, and productivity characteristics were identified among male and female dentists. Additionally, multivariate analyses showed gender, practice type, and age as significant predictors of productivity.
