This article investigates reasons for the relatively low number of women entering oral and maxillofacial surgery training. An anonymous online survey was developed to assess the perceptions of senior women dental students and oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) program directors about oral surgery as a career choice for women. It was found that female dental students perceive bias against women in oral surgery, but that most program directors report a favorable view of women. The authors concluded that although a higher percentage of women than men do not complete OMS training, bias against women in OMS does not appear to be prevalent.
本文探讨了进入口腔颌面外科培训的女性人数相对较少的原因。开展了一项匿名在线调查，以评估高年级女性牙科学生和口腔颌面外科（OMS）项目主任对口腔外科作为女性职业选择的看法。结果发现，女性牙科学生认为口腔外科存在对女性的偏见，但大多数项目主任对女性持赞许态度。作者得出结论，尽管未完成OMS培训的女性比例高于男性，但OMS领域对女性的偏见似乎并不普遍。
