C u ric u lu m V ita eCuriculum Vitae
Martine Christine Maria Schriks was born on September 9th, 1974, in Tilburg, the Netherlands.
She finished the secondary school at the Cobbenhagen College in Tilburg in 1992 and started to study dentistry at the Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA) in the same year. During the final stage of her study, she participated in a research project in Zimbabwe, focusing on the refinement of the Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) technique.
After her graduation in May 1998, she started working as a general practitioner in a dental practice in Tilburg and in Hilversum.
In September 1998, she started her postgraduate education (MSc) Paediatric Dentistry at the Department of Cariology Endodontology and Pedodontology of the ACTA. She completed this MSc successfully in July 2001. During this education period she worked parttime in general dental clinic.
As part of the postgraduate education she completed a clinical study upon the degree of discomfort experienced by children during ART and this resulted in a publication which has been included in this thesis. These “preliminary” research activities stimulated her to start her PhD program in September 2001 at the Department of Cariology Endodontology and Pedodontology of the ACTA. The results of the years of research that followed are described in this thesis. The present work resulted in several publications and a number of presentations at (inter)national conferences.
During her PhD study, she worked parttime as a paediatric dentist in the Special Dental Care clinic in Amsterdam (SBT).
In 2004 she joined the board of the Dutch Association of Paediatric Dentstry (NVvK), of which she is now the general secretary.
