Hey!

I see Dale Schlehuber has joined the forum. A 4 year PerioLase Nd:YAG user. Welcome Dale!

Bob

Well, Well, WELCOME,

To Dr. Martha Cortes who signed in recently.

Martha is a long time laser user (1992?).  She started out with a dual FRP Holmium (Ho) and Neodymium (Nd) YAG laser from Excel Quantronics (now out of the dental market).

Martha has a practice that is heavily involved with biostimulation using a variety of “soft” lasers, cosmetics, and Laser Perio Therapy.

She is past President of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), and was one of it founding members.  She is friends with most or all of the cosmetic “luminaries”.  So she can give us all some insights in this regard as well.

Martha is a true international lecturer, recently giving a lecture in Mexico presenting in Spanish.  And later this year, she will be going to France and giving a presentation in French as well.

Talented and bright, with a Pre-doctorate degree in Biochemistry or Microbiology (help me here Martha), she is an avid laser user.

Martha has followed the work Del and I have been conducting for many years and was one of the first to be trained in Laser ENAP back when we called it that (1998).

In 2002 Martha became a PerioLase MVP-7 owner and in 2003 became an Instructor for MDT in New York City, where she is one of only a few who teaches MDT’s 3 day Bootcamp out of California.  (Hey, we need help if we’re gonna grow!)

Del and I have been great friends with Martha and her Physician (plastic surgeon) husband David.  Martha is a wonderful “soul” that comes through when you are with her.

She will be giving presentations at the MDT User’s Group Meeting on February 13-14th, AND at the upcoming ALD meeting in Palm Springs.  She promises to give it in English……:biggrin:

Warm, open, and humble she will want to meet you, and help you in any way she can.  So, introduce yourselves when you get the chance.

Bob
