The authors analyzed the mean net income of a cohort of male and female dentists with similar demographics and practice characteristics. The authors found that the average net income of these male dentists is higher than it is for their female counterparts. This difference is statistically significant and monetarily tangible, amounting to an annual net income balance of about $26,000 (22 percent) in favor of male dentists. If such a difference in net income persists, it could affect the profession as well as the distribution of dental school enrollments.
