Caesar de Trey, owner of the Claudius Ash group, which later became The Amalgamated Dental Co., the most powerful dental company in Europe, called a meeting of the leaders of some of the major dental companies.

Present were Joseph Ash; son of the jeweller Claudius Ash, C. W Shortt; S.S. White Co. (SSW), H Edwards of DMCo, Jimmy Caldwell of Glasgow Dental, John Thorn of Western Dental, E A Drury of Drury & Co,and Jack Cottrell (father of Hutchison). There, the British Dental Trade Association, now known as the British Dental Industry Association, came into being and has remained a significant contributor to the UK dental industry ever since.
