In the heart of Athens, under the mentorship of the world-renowned oral surgeon Dr. Radoslaw Jadach, two passionate Finnish dentists Dr. Katariina Ahonen and Dr. Sirpa Strandvall began a journey that would soon transcend borders.

They joined the Soft Tissue Management Course organized by Delta Dent Academy, a program known for its depth, precision, and focus on real surgical mastery. What they experienced there was not just education — it was a turning point.

Over three intensive days in Athens, surrounded by colleagues from Albania, Greece, and across Europe, they immersed themselves in the artistry of flap design, grafting techniques, and the biological principles behind soft tissue healing.

They watched, practiced, and discussed every detail, guided by Dr. Jadach’s philosophy of “understanding the tissue, respecting biology, and mastering precision.”

But the story didn’t end in Athens.

Bringing Knowledge Back Home

Returning to Finland, inspired and motivated, these two doctors decided that what they had learned should not remain only in their hands — it should be shared.

They took the knowledge, protocols, and philosophy of Delta Dent Academy and began teaching their colleagues, opening new horizons for soft tissue management within the Finnish dental community.

Today, they are conducting their own sessions — integrating the very same techniques and clinical principles first learned under Dr. Jadach’s guidance.

What began as a personal step toward professional growth has become a national contribution to elevating surgical standards and patient care.

Their success embodies the Delta Dent vision: knowledge without borders, growth through sharing, and excellence through collaboration.

The Spirit of Delta Dent Academy

At Delta Dent Academy, education is not confined to lectures or classrooms — it’s a movement of inspired professionals who carry forward what they’ve learned, empowering others to rise.

Seeing our alumni become educators themselves is the purest reflection of our mission:

to nurture dentists who not only excel in skill, but also inspire through example.

From Athens to Helsinki, from learning to teaching, from participants to mentors — this journey stands as a testament to how education can transform individuals and entire professional communities.

The Delta Dent Family grows not by numbers, but by stories like this one — stories of courage, curiosity, and the will to pass knowledge forward.
