The clinic occupies a ground floor unit in a well-trafficked section of the neighborhood, with nearby landmarks including Al Safa Park and the Dr. Michael's Children Dental Centre, which serves the network's pediatric patients. The Umm Suqeim branch is part of one of Dubai's longest-established dental groups, with roots going back to 1997, and is supported by a clinical team drawn from more than 50 dental professionals across the network's multiple Dubai locations.
The clinic is well known in the surrounding community for its combination of specialized expertise and family-friendly care. Patients from Umm Suqeim, Jumeirah, and nearby neighborhoods rely on the branch for everything from routine checkups to complex restorative and specialist treatment, all delivered within the consistent standards for which the Dr. Michael's name is recognized throughout Dubai.
Clinical Team
The Umm Suqeim branch hosts a multidisciplinary team of dental professionals covering a broad spectrum of specialties. Dr. Rafif Tayara is a Specialist Pediatric Dentist who handles the unique dental needs of children, from first visits through to orthodontic assessments and preventive care tailored to developing dentitions. The general dentistry team includes Dr. Christina Friis-Moeller, Dr. Soulaf Shaker, Dr. Ladan Sahirad, and Dr. Kerry Ahmadi, all providing comprehensive family dental care with the attentiveness and thoroughness that characterizes the Dr. Michael's clinical approach. For patients requiring endodontic treatment, Dr. Yasmin Al-Zoubaidy and Dr. Kavita Tarale are both accomplished endodontists who bring specialist skill to root canal procedures.
This depth of in-house specialist coverage means that patients referred for endodontics, pediatric dentistry, or other areas rarely need to leave the clinic network, reducing the inconvenience and discontinuity that can arise when different providers manage different aspects of a patient's care.
Comprehensive Dental Services
The Umm Suqeim clinic offers the full breadth of dental services associated with the Dr. Michael's network. General and family dentistry forms the foundation, with routine examinations, professional cleaning, scaling and polishing, and digital X-rays handled as part of regular preventive care for patients of all ages. Restorative treatments include tooth-colored composite fillings, ceramic crowns, bridges, and inlays that restore both the function and appearance of damaged teeth.
Cosmetic dentistry is a key pillar of the clinic's offering, including professional teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and smile design consultations for patients seeking aesthetic improvements. The clinical team works collaboratively with patients to understand their goals and recommend conservative, high-impact solutions.
Orthodontic services are available for children, teenagers, and adults, addressing misalignment, bite problems, and crowding through traditional braces and contemporary alignment systems. Early assessment for children is encouraged to identify issues while they are most efficiently corrected.
Endodontic care, performed by specialist endodontists, covers root canal treatment for infected or damaged teeth, with modern techniques that prioritize accuracy and patient comfort. Pediatric dentistry is handled with particular care, with a team approach designed to make young patients feel at ease from their earliest appointments.
Dental implants are offered as a long-term solution for missing teeth, with comprehensive treatment planning from initial assessment through to final restoration. Oral surgery, including extractions and surgical procedures, is performed at the clinic, with post-operative support and clear recovery guidance provided to every patient.
Periodontal care, including treatment for gum disease and deep cleaning procedures, is also available, recognizing the well-established link between gum health and overall wellbeing. Prosthodontic solutions for patients requiring partial or full dentures and complex multi-unit restorations are handled with the precision and aesthetic focus the network is known for.

The clinic offers on-site and public parking, making appointments accessible for patients arriving by car. Free Wi-Fi is available in the waiting area, and the clinic accepts payment by cash, credit card, debit card, and cheque.
