Dr. Pedro J. Cuartas
Founder, Director of Operations
Dr. Pedro J. Cuartas is a native of New Orleans and now lives in Houma, Louisiana. He is a first generation American as his parents are from Colombia. He is bilingual, fluent in Spanish. Dr. Cuartas is married to his beautiful wife, Denise, for 23 years. They have a son, Rafael, who is 16 years old and is very active in track and basketball.
Dr. Cuartas graduated LSU Dental School in 2000. He began his journey with Dental Sleep Medicine in 2007. He has first-hand experience with all the typical pitfalls and challenges in that field that deter most dentists. However, he was able to overcome them and is now running a very successful Dental Sleep Medicine practice full time while his dental partner and associate continue with the General Dental Practice.
His passion for Dental Sleep Medicine does not stop in the clinic. Since 2017, he has been teaching others how to avoid those pitfalls in Dental Sleep Medicine and how to flourish and prosper in that field. One of the offerings that make him unique, is his long-term Dental Sleep Mentorship Program that enables Dentists to not only have on going education for Dental Sleep Medicine, but to have an accessible partner in all facets of the Dental Sleep Medicine journey so they can begin with confidence and continuous support.
Dr. Cuartas’ mission is to help improve people’s health and quality of life by generating awareness on Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), getting more people screened and treated for OSA, working closely with all physicians, and having patients involved in their treatment for the best long-term outcomes. Dr. Cuartas has worked tirelessly to perfect the DSM-MD model and make it readily available to those who want to share in his mission.
