Abstract

I choosed two hundred person of national female dental technician at random and researched the questional of 143 persons. So I came to the following conclusions. Most of them were in charge of porcelain part in dental laboratory and were mostly doing build-up of Porcelain part. When they choosed laboratory work, generally they inclined to choose their relatives and professor's introduction and because of their home they worked there. In these questions, laboratory work is the proper job for a women. Most of them thought that it was fairly good job. Many maiden ladies wanted to keep engaging in dental laboratory after they got married. In these questions, they want to open dental laboratory in the future, 40% of female dental technician want to do. They have alternative and positive ideas about dental prosthesis work.
