Abstrakt: This paper follows the life of Sydney Garne, from qualification as a dentist in London through a short visit to South Africa, to a lifetime of professional service in Ceylon. There he was the first non-medically qualified dentist to enrol on the Dentists Register. Then he became the founder-President of the Ceylon Dental Association which he ensured was based on the British association. The responsibilities of that post remained on his shoulders for 10 years; all the time he ran a thriving practice and had a happy family life, including a stepson of whom he was proud.
