Biolase Technology Inc., a maker of dental laser systems, has purchased a 23,280-square-foot building it had been leasing in San Clemente with the intent to expand its sales and marketing team.
“We’re planning a 5% to 10% increase in employees by the end of the year,” said Stephen Tartamella, the company’s chief financial officer.
In the third quarter, Biolase increased its sales team by half to 92 people. The company occupies the entire building at 981 Calle Amanecer in the Amanecer Business Park.
Biolase’s laser technology allows for dental procedures with no anesthesia. Last week, Biolase was granted a patent on its use of lasers with water for cutting all types of dental hard tissue, including enamel, dentin and dental root material.
