Al Afdal Medical Center is a multi-specialty dental and medical practice located in the Al Qasimia district of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Founded in 2016, the center began as a small dental clinic and has steadily grown over the years to become one of the most trusted healthcare providers in Sharjah, having served more than 15,000 patients since its establishment. Located at the Al Tawoos Building on King Abdul Aziz Road, opposite NBD Bank in Al Mahatta, the center offers a comprehensive range of dental and general medical services under one roof.
The growth of Al Afdal Medical Center from a modest dental practice into a fully developed multi-specialty center reflects the trust that patients across Sharjah have placed in its clinical team and service quality. The center operates extended hours six days a week, including evenings, making it accessible to patients who cannot visit during standard working hours.
Clinical Team
The medical and dental team at Al Afdal Medical Center includes specialists across multiple disciplines, supported by a dedicated general practitioner for medical consultations. Dr. Bhavna C. Mohan serves as a General Dentist at the center, contributing to the breadth of general dental care available to patients. The dental team is complemented by a specialist Orthodontist and a Periodontist, enabling the center to manage complex cases that require specialist input without the need for external referrals.
The team's commitment to clinical excellence and patient-centered care has been a cornerstone of the center's growth. Staff across all departments are noted for their professional approach and their ability to make patients feel welcome and at ease throughout their treatment journey.
Cosmetic and Aesthetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is one of the core specialties at Al Afdal Medical Center. The center offers a wide range of aesthetic treatments designed to transform and enhance the appearance of the smile.
Dental veneers, including Lumineers and conventional porcelain veneers, are available for patients seeking to correct the shape, size, color, or surface texture of their teeth. Lumineers are an ultra-thin veneer option that requires minimal tooth preparation, making them a less invasive alternative to traditional veneers. Composite bonding provides a more affordable single-visit cosmetic option for minor corrections.
Teeth whitening services include both professional home whitening systems and Zoom whitening -- an in-clinic chairside treatment that uses a high-intensity light to accelerate the whitening gel, delivering results in a single appointment. Zoom whitening is particularly popular with patients who want rapid, dramatic results.
Dental crowns are available in a range of materials, including high-quality zirconia, which provides excellent strength and a highly natural appearance. Zirconia crowns are increasingly the preferred choice for both posterior and anterior teeth due to their durability and aesthetic superiority over older materials. Bridges are also available for patients requiring a fixed solution to replace one or more missing teeth.
Implantology
Dental implants are offered by a specialist implantologist at Al Afdal Medical Center. Implants are the gold standard solution for replacing missing teeth, consisting of a titanium post that integrates with the jawbone and supports a crown, bridge, or implant-retained denture. The center manages the complete implant process from initial assessment and treatment planning through surgical placement and final restoration, ensuring continuity of care throughout what is typically a multi-stage treatment.
Orthodontics and Invisalign
Orthodontic treatment is a significant part of the center's offering, catering to both younger patients and adults. The center provides traditional metal braces, ceramic braces -- a more discreet fixed option using tooth-colored brackets -- and Invisalign clear aligner therapy. Invisalign uses a series of removable, virtually invisible aligners to gradually move teeth into alignment, offering a comfortable and aesthetically unobtrusive alternative to fixed braces. The specialist orthodontist oversees all alignment cases, ensuring that treatment plans are expertly designed and carefully monitored.
Periodontics
The center's specialist Periodontist provides dedicated care for patients with gum disease and related conditions. Periodontal services range from routine scaling and root planing for early-stage gum disease to more advanced interventions for established periodontitis. Healthy gums are fundamental to overall dental health, and the availability of a dedicated periodontist within the center ensures that patients receive specialist-level gum care without needing to be referred elsewhere.
General Dentistry and Preventive Care
The center provides a full suite of general dental services, including routine check-ups, professional teeth cleaning and polishing, fluoride treatment for cavity prevention, tooth-colored fillings, and root canal treatment (RCT) for infected or damaged teeth. Pediatric dental services are available for younger patients, with the team taking a gentle and reassuring approach to help children feel comfortable during their visits.
General Medicine
Beyond dentistry, Al Afdal Medical Center also offers general medical consultations, allowing patients to address everyday health concerns at the same facility. This dual dental and medical offering adds significant convenience for patients and families who prefer to consolidate their healthcare needs in a single, trusted center.
With extended operating hours from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM Saturday through Thursday, and from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM on Fridays, Al Afdal Medical Center is one of the most accessible dental and medical centers in Sharjah. Its combination of specialist expertise, comprehensive services, and genuine patient focus has made it a rapidly growing and deeply trusted healthcare destination in the UAE.
