I recommended this course to anyone who would like to increase their knowledge of lasers and dental disease. So... basically, everyone in dentistry! Joy is not only knowledgeable but extremely helpful with the hands-on portion. She made the 12-hours fly by. I loved the interaction, and she made it an enjoyable course. Definitely worth it! I still have questions that arise, and she is still present and willing to help. I appreciate that.read more

I’m a dentist in Texas and we are required to do a 12 hour training on lasers. I was reluctant to spend 12 hours on a... Sunday doing a course about lasers. However, the day FLEW by with the extremely talented and engaging Joy as the instructor. I felt energized and excited about laser use in dentistry and I’m already looking at more courses with her now that I’ve got a taste! 10/10 would recommend this CE!read more

Took the course in February in Dallas. Loved the lecture and even tho there were a lot of participants it was great... that the trainers were able to give individual attention to questions and help with the proper way of using the laser if you struggled. Came back excited to use the laser and have been since then. Thank you so much 😊read more

I am a GP dentist. took one of Joy Raskie’s laser course in Dallas Texas. Joy went over each brand including mine which... was Sirolaser Blue. I picked this for my surgery mainly. Joy was very knowledgeable about this model as well as other brands. She gave a great idea which brand is good for hygiene and which one is good for surgeries for dentists. Her course covered all aspects. Importantly her course was fun. I think it was my course that I never fell asleep. I recommend this course to all (doctors and hygienists).read more

My experience with Joy and her course was fantastic! I wish I could leave 1000 🌟 She’s enthusiastic, incredibly... knowledgeable, relatable, and takes you from start to finish with ease. I knew very little walking in at 8a and by 5p I was good to go. We applied our advanced gum training immediately upon returning to the office the following week. The verbiage provided has helped me communicate effectively with patients with very little pushback. The majority of patients are truly relieved to have another tool to help them achieve the goals they have for their oral health. It’s been 17 years since I graduated hygiene school. I’m as fired up as I was back then on Day 1. Thank you for that!!

PS - get the course handout!! Totally worth itread more

This course Amazing! I'm such a hands on learner (I think us HYGIENIST are) and this course delivered just that! It's... long but with the exciting energy in the room it really goes by fast.

I'm from Montana and Wyoming. We are very rural and do not have many options to access a variety of CE options that... also include a live hands on portion. Honestly, I was skeptical about the online class at first. I saw that it was pre approved by the Wyoming Board and asked others through Facebook if it was legit.
Bottom line, the information is amazingly thorough and Joy is a wealth of knowledge (yes, she is real).
I am very excited to bring this knowledge to my patients to improve their health and lives.
Thank you Joy for bringing this together in various formats, to help all involved in the dental field!read more

It was such a fun class. Joy with Advanced Dental Hygiene is a great instructor. I was not bored at all. I've had 1... other laser course before (in WI) and I did not feel confident with my skills, nor did I feel I was knowledgeable enough to educate myself/my patients. I was suprised by how well Joy taught the class and how well she explained things in both the lecture and the hands-on portion. The anologies she used were also very helpful. I'm looking forward to implementing laser treatments with my patients. 10/10read more

I absolutely loved Janessa Bock! My all day course was April 29th, 2022. Loads of hand on training. My favorite part... was the photobiomodulation section with the latest Gemini laser and it’s attachment. I mean you feel instant relief! Definitely looking forward for more sessions on future dental CE’s!

I highly recommend the online Diode Laser Certification course offered by Advanced Dental Hygiene. I chose the 8 hour... online course with virtual hands-on training and found it to be a wealth of information and training! I loved the self-paced models which you can replay as many times as needed. In addition, you have an entire year to review. Joy was supportive and helpful throughout the course and beyond; her passion and knowledge of laser dentistry is inspirational! Heather was fantastic during the hands-on training; she made the experience very relaxed and comfortable, answering all my questions and giving me great tips from all her years of experience. Again, highly recommend this comprehensive course!read more

I highly recommend Advanced Dental Hygiene to any individual or group wanting to become laser certified! I took this... class virtually during the pandemic and walked away feeling completely confident of my skills and used the laser the very next day. There is so much practical information and application that you will certainly walk away feeling confident to begin using your laser right away, too. Also, Joy offers a lot of accessibility to help even after the training is completed. A very thorough instruction of laser science and procedures done in a fun environment.read more
