Al Ain Al Salam Orthodontic Centre

Al Ain Al Salam Orthodontic Centre is a comprehensive dental and multi-specialty healthcare facility located on Zayed Bin Sultan Street in the Central District of Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Operating under the Al Salam Health group, the centre is part of a well-established local dental organization that has built a strong reputation for high-quality, specialist-led dental care accessible to patients across Al Ain and the broader Abu Dhabi Emirate.

The centre is open every day of the week, providing patients with flexible access to dental and medical services regardless of their schedule. Insurance is accepted from a wide range of providers, including Daman, Thiqa, AXA, MetLife, and numerous other plans, making the clinic highly accessible to both UAE national and expatriate patients covered under employer or individual health insurance schemes.

Al Ain Al Salam Orthodontic Centre is staffed by a large and diverse team of fifteen qualified dental professionals, including general practitioners, GP dentists, and multiple certified specialists. The specialist team includes two Specialist Orthodontists, Dr. Shinod Varghese and Dr. Bijitha P. Nair, who deliver the full range of orthodontic treatments for children, teenagers, and adults. A Specialist Prosthodontist, Dr. Sonia Bhat, manages complex restorative and prosthetic dental cases including crowns, veneers, bridges, and full and partial dentures. Dr. Sajith Abdul Lathif serves as a Specialist Periodontist and Implantologist, overseeing both the gum health and dental implant departments. The oral surgery department is led by Dr. Deepak Prasanna, who performs surgical extractions, impactions, apicectomies, cyst enucleations, and other oral surgical procedures.

Orthodontic treatment is one of the centre's core offerings and is available in multiple formats to suit different patient needs and aesthetic preferences. Options include self-ligating braces, which use a sliding mechanism instead of elastic ties to reduce friction and potentially shorten treatment time; tooth-colored ceramic braces for patients who prefer a more discreet fixed option; traditional metal braces for robust and cost-effective treatment; and myofunctional appliances for younger patients with developing jaw and tooth alignment issues.

Dental implants and smile makeover services are a significant part of the centre's clinical offering, with Dr. Abdul Lathif's dual specialization in periodontics and implantology enabling the clinic to manage the full implant pathway in-house. Services include implant-supported single crowns, implant-supported fixed partial dentures, and full mouth implant-based reconstructions for patients requiring comprehensive rehabilitation of their dentition.

Periodontal services address the full spectrum of gum disease, from preventive maintenance including scaling and polishing to advanced surgical interventions such as gingival curettage, root planing, flap surgery, and soft tissue grafting. Laser-assisted periodontal treatments are available, offering patients a less invasive option for managing gum disease with reduced discomfort and faster healing.

Cosmetic dentistry at the centre includes teeth whitening, veneers, composite bonding, and full smile design consultations. Prosthodontics services encompass crowns, veneers, bridges, complete and partial dentures, and temporomandibular prosthetic management. Endodontic services cover root canal treatment and retreatment of previously failed root canal cases. The centre also provides general medicine services, managing chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity alongside its dental specialties.

A dedicated TMJ and muscle pain clinic is available for patients suffering from temporomandibular joint disorders, jaw pain, and related muscular conditions, reflecting the centre's broad clinical scope beyond routine dentistry. Patient reviews consistently highlight the professionalism and experience of the clinical team, the modern and well-equipped facilities, and the centre's suitability for a full range of dental health requirements.
