Abstract
At first glance women might seem to have played little part in the British Dental Association's affairs. For example, none have been secretaries of the Association; and only one has been editor of its journal. That is a wrong surmise, as many females have contributed significantly with their talents on local and national committees. Further, this paper shows there have been some outstanding female Presidents.
