Originally from Brazil with Dutch nationality, Dr. Deise Caldas Kuhlman has lived and acquired professional experience in the Netherlands, where she worked for 4,5 years. Dr. Kuhlman graduated as a Dental Surgeon and specialized in Orthodontics at the State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), one of the first and most respected orthodontic residency in the country. In 2016, Deise moved to the Netherlands, and she prioritized mastering the Dutch language and validating her Dental degree. Six months later, Deise successfully passed the Dutch language and the Dental examination in the university Academisch Centrum Tandheelkunde Amsterdam (ACTA), which gave her access to be a registered Dental practitioner in the Netherlands.
Recently, Dr Kuhlman moved to Malta to follow her dream: to pursue a Ph.D. in Orthodontics and pursue an academic career alongside a private practice showing a special interest in orthodontics. In addition, she loves to travel and learn about different cultures in her free time.
