Dentsply Sirona continues to open new showrooms and training centers around the world. This steady investment in the customer focus is essential to offer the best clinical education in the industry, deliver above market growth, and drive revenues.
Dentsply Sirona is the biggest manufacturer in the Asia Pacific region with over 1,600 employees serving local markets. With the recent openings of showrooms and advanced training centers in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia, the Company is tapping into the growth potential of the region, creating demand by making new connections with dental professionals. These facilities also represent a commitment to advancing dental care there through clinical education. At the same time, the grand opening of another showroom and training center location in Central Europe means that the Company is on track to take advantage of this potential growth market.
Grand opening in Singapore
Dentsply Sirona’s showroom in Singapore’s Post Centre opened on October 12th, 2018 with over 70 guests in attendance including dental partners, professionals from the private sector and institutions, members of dental professional associations as well as local and regional colleagues. Henning Müller, Group Vice President, Asia Pacific RCO gave the opening speech followed by Julien Didron, General Manager, South East Asia who spoke on behalf of the employees about their excitement.
The new showroom displays the latest products and equipment from Dentsply Sirona giving dental professionals the ability to personally view, test and get a feel for all of the Company’s products. The training facility accommodates up to 40 participants for lectures and 28 participants for hands-on workshops.

APAC Center for Dentistry opens in Hong Kong
A state-of-the-art training center and showroom opened on December 5th, 2018 in Hong Kong’s Kowloon Bay. As in Singapore, Henning Müller opened the event with a speech to over 60 guests in attendance, followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony. The Hong Kong Amateur Orchestra serenaded guests with classical music as they took the opportunity to explore the new 430 square meter facility that displays Dentsply Sirona’s range of dental solutions and includes space for demonstrations, training, lectures, and hands-on courses.
Those in attendance were genuinely impressed by the new facility and the dental professionals were eager to attend upcoming courses. One of the guests, Dr. Yeung Ka Chun, remarked, “It’s a nice and well-equipped training center for dentistry. I am looking forward to working with Dentsply Sirona in the near future.”

New facility in Malaysia
Dental professionals in Malaysia have a new showroom and educational facility to visit located within the new office in Kuala Lumpur. On March 2nd, 2019, Dentsply Sirona welcomed roughly 50 important guests to the official opening. The event included an opening speech by Julien Didron and Hui Gee Chew, National Sales Manager Malaysia. Following the speech, there was a ribbon cutting ceremony and a lion dance – a traditional dance in which performers mimic a lion’s movement to bring good luck and fortune for the future. Guests enjoyed activities such as getting their photo taken, participating in a best smile award, and a lucky draw. The showroom and training center are located on the first floor of the 5,300 square foot commercial duplex with the office area situated on the second floor. With its new educational facility, the team plans to increase its educational program offering to more than 50 courses per year.
This is a great improvement for our Malaysian dentists as well as our Dentsply Sirona team. We now offer a place where we can showcase our products and organize trainings in-house across our product portfolio.
