“…Academic career pathways were established by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) in 2006, but concerns remain that these are not structured or visible enough. 13 It is unclear if awareness of the academic training pathways in dentistry is a barrier to all potential applicants or just to specific ethnic groups.

Careers in academic dentistry are failing to attract a new generation of academics to steer dental education and research. Dental academia is further limited by inadequacies in levels of ethnic diversity. There is a stark contrast between the diversity of graduates entering the dental profession and those in academic positions, especially in senior ranks. Dentistry is not the only field in academia, which lacks representation and lessons may be drawn from other faculties. This paper focuses on what is known about dental academia in the United Kingdom, where there are formal research training pathways. There is an emerging recognition of the requirement for action, and it is hoped this will stimulate debate and impetus for research across Europe. The terminology used throughout this piece follows the United Kingdom Cabinet Office recommendations for writing about ethnicity (Writing about ethnicity, 2021; https://www. ethni city-facts -figur es.servi ce.gov.uk/style -guide/ writi ng-about -ethni city).Where cited sources have employed less acceptable terms (Please don't call me BAME or BME!: Civil service, 2019; https://civil servi ce.blog.gov.uk/2019/07/08/pleas e-dontcall-me-bame-or-bme/), these have been changed.
