Advancing Gender-Equitable, Affirmative and Integrated Dentistry in India: Multizonal National Benchmarking of Oral Health Professionals’ Gender Sensitivity, Inclusiveness, and Preparedness Using the Novel OHP-GSIP © Tool

While Indian OHPs displayed generally supportive attitudes toward transgender individuals, substantial gaps persist in structural inclusivity, clinical preparedness, and knowledge. Bridging these gaps requires systemic reforms in dental education, policy, and practice environments. The OHP-GSIP © tool provides a benchmark for guiding curricular integration, institutional inclusivity, and policy advocacy toward equitable, gender-affirming oral healthcare.

Abstract

While Indian OHPs displayed generally supportive attitudes toward transgender individuals, substantial gaps persist in structural inclusivity, clinical preparedness, and knowledge. Bridging these gaps requires systemic reforms in dental education, policy, and practice environments. The OHP-GSIP © tool provides a benchmark for guiding curricular integration, institutional inclusivity, and policy advocacy toward equitable, gender-affirming oral healthcare.
