The origin of
Singapore Dental Association (SDA) can be traced back to
1938 when Professor E K Tratman wisely envisaged the need
for an association to represent the dental profession and
founded the Malayan Dental Association.
In the
early years when the number of dentists was very
small, there was very little activity and the
association came to a standstill during the World
War II period. After the defeat of the Axis powers,
the Medical College resumed teaching in mid-1946 and
slowly the Association was revived. At that time,
most of the activities were organized in conjunction
with and in the dental school.
After Malaya gained independence in 1957, Malayan
Dental Association continued to represent the dental
professions both in Malaysia and Singapore. In 1963,
Singapore together with Sarawak and Sabah, merged
with Malaya to become Malaysia. The following year,
at the conclusion of the 4th Asia Pacific Dental
Congress (APDC), the name was changed to Malaysian
Dental Association.
In 1965, Singapore separated from Malaysia and
became an independent nation and thus, in 1966, an
agreement was reached to dichotomize the Association
into the Malaysian Dental Association and the
Singapore Dental Association. The SDA was formally
established in 1967 and Dr Lau Kieng Hiong was
elected as the first President for 1967-68.
In 1974, SDA contributed an initial capital sum of
$5,100 (which included a personal donation of $4,100
by Dr Lau Kieng Hiong) to set up the SDA Endowment
Fund. By 1989, the Fund has grown to $76,983.
SDA has grown tremendously and was chosen to host
the FDI Congress again in 2009. These international
events brought great prestige and honour to the
Association as well as the nation.
