Kamilla Siekierski, a former owner and president of Dentek, Inc. in Milford, CT and Kama's Dental Laboratory in Krakow, Poland, came to United States in 1963 to complete her studies and work. Kamilla was a dental technician at Dan's Dental Laboratory in Waterbury, CT from 1963-1965, and at Wilcox Dental Laboratory, Wethersfield, CT from 1965-1968. She was than a president of Dentek, Inc. from 1980. Kamilla Siekierski is a member of Connecticut Dental Laboratory Association and held a position of the president during 1977-1979. She is also a member of the National Association of Dental Laboratories, Dental Manufacturers of America and American Academy of Implant Dentistry.
Today, Kamilla Siekierski is an internationally recognized lecturer on various topics on dental prostheses. By close relationships with many prosthodontists and dental schools she was able to study and document many trivial daily dental problems, like why delivery of a single crown varied from five to fifty minutes. Her devotion to the dental technology and years of experience lead not only to recognition of the problems but also to solutions, which simplified lives of dentists and technicians alike. Kamilla Siekierski is a true pioneer and one of the very first women who attended and freely voiced her opinions at dental and dental technology professional meetings across the country when women still struggled to gain their professional recognition and voting rights. By managing her own lab and by lecturing across the globe she gained national respect and recognition as one of top women in dental laboratory technology.
