Since 1866 when Lucy Beaman Hobbs graduated from the Ohio College of Dental Surgery as the first woman dentist in the world, many women have followed her example. In this paper, the first to be given in the Symposium, 'Women In Dentistry - Any Room At The Top?', the place of women dentists in universities is discussed. In many countries, despite the rapid growth in the proportion of women compared with men qualifying in dentistry, men still hold the majority of senior university posts. Evidence supports this observation and suggestions are given as to the reasons why it may persist.
自1866年露西·比曼·霍布斯作为世界上第一位女牙医从俄亥俄牙科学院毕业以来，许多女性纷纷效仿她。在本次研讨会上发表的第一篇论文《牙科领域的女性——高层有她们的一席之地吗？》中，探讨了女牙医在大学中的地位。在许多国家，尽管与获得牙科资格的男性相比，女性的比例迅速增长，但男性仍占据着大学高级职位的大多数。有证据支持这一观察结果，并就其可能持续存在的原因提出了建议。
