Lindsey , RDH - “Finally, a course
that simplifies laser therapy and gives me
step-by-step procedures. Cindy made things simple
for me and made me understand the fundamentals of
laser therapy!”
Danielle RDH - “ I had been laser
certified for 4 months but afraid to use the diode
on a patient. Cindy gave me the hands on
training and instilled the confidence I needed to
use the laser on a patient. Thank you , Cindy!”
Dentist in San Diego -“ I have
referred a couple of my part time hygienists to
Cindy for certification because not only can she
certify them, but also showed my practice how to
incorporate the diode laser to give my patients
great, non-invasive care while increasing my
revenue! ”

Experience:
I have been practicing as a Registered Dental
Hygienist for 22 years. I began using the diode
laser in 2006 as a clinician. In 2006, I worked a
maternity leave office that had a periodontal soft
tissue program implemented with laser. I have since
then incorporated this and my own knowledge through
other classes and experience to build a laser
practice into all my previous and current offices
since 1996. I believe in giving the highest standard
of care to patients while also increasing production
for the offices. I see a great value in using the
laser and want to share my knowledge and experience
with hygienists and other offices to help them
understand and benefit from my experiences. When
talking to other hygienists, I found a great many of
the hygienists didn’t fully understand the clinical
application of the diode laser for the patient or
how to incorporate into the office. These particular
hygienists stated they didn’t feel comfortable doing
clinical applications or corresponding to the
patients about benefits and use. This inspired me to
create my own consulting company and get my lecture
approved by the California Dental Board to help them
in these aspects.
