Masterclass by Danthaja

Launched in 2024, as an answer to the dire needs of the practicing dentists in Sri Lanka. At that time there were hardly any quality hands-on courses for the general practitioners to improve their clinical knowledge and skills. The gap between the clinical dentistry in other countries and Sri Lanka was ever widening. Dr Lakmal kulasekara, founding Director Danthaja introduced the idea of ‘Masterclasses’ to the field of Dentistry in Sri Lanka, where a hall in a five-star hotel was converted to a small Dental learning space for a full Day. Courses started with endodontic Masterclass with the participation of 30 Dental surgeons from all around the country.

After that this concept quickly gained momentum and popularity among Dentists in Sri Lanka. Thereafter new courses were introduced in crowns and bridges, Tooth wear and whitening techniques. As of January 2026, fourteen classes have been conducted, and more than 380 dentists have completed classes with Danthaja.
