Travelling from Motor City to Dubai

Manhal Medical Center is at Office 101, SMJ1 Building, Street 22A, Al Safa 1, between Al Wasl Road and Sheikh Zayed Road. From Motor City, Arjan or Al Barsha South, most patients use Sheikh Zayed Road or Al Khail Road, and the drive is usually around 20 to 30 minutes outside heavy traffic. Many residents who work in central Dubai find it convenient to book on their way home, as the clinic is open daily until 20:00 and from 10:00 on Saturdays. Because multi-step treatments involve several visits, the team can plan appointments to reduce the number of trips and tell you in advance how long each visit will take.

Gum disease treatment and cleaning

Bleeding when brushing, bad breath, receding gums or teeth that feel loose can all be signs of gum disease. Dr. Fariba Alnoory measures gum pockets, checks X-rays for bone support and explains whether a routine scale and polish is enough or whether deeper cleaning below the gum line is needed. Deep cleaning is done under local anaesthetic where required, often over more than one session, followed by a review to check healing. Good home care, including interdental brushes or floss, is essential to keep results. Smokers and people with diabetes are at higher risk, so regular maintenance visits are especially important.

Whitening, crowns and “Hollywood smile” questions

Teeth whitening can lighten natural tooth colour, but it does not change fillings or crowns, and sensitivity can occur temporarily. Dr. Fariba Alnoory checks for decay and gum health before recommending professional whitening. For broken or heavily filled teeth, crowns made of zirconia, porcelain-fused-to-metal or E.max ceramic may be advised, and a bridge may replace a missing tooth. The term “Hollywood smile” usually refers to a set of veneers or crowns across the smile; this is a major decision that removes natural tooth structure, so it is planned carefully with the clinic’s specialist team using digital scanning, and more conservative options are always discussed first.

Root canal treatment and extractions

A tooth with deep decay or a cracked tooth can develop inflamed or infected pulp, causing lingering pain to hot or cold, pain when biting or a gum swelling. Root canal treatment cleans and seals the inside of the tooth so it can be kept, usually followed by a crown on back teeth. Dr. Fariba Alnoory assesses whether a tooth can be saved, explains the expected number of visits and refers complex cases or surgical extractions to the clinic’s oral surgeon. Where a tooth cannot be saved, extraction is carried out under local anaesthetic, and the options for replacing it are discussed before or after removal.

Dental implants and planning in one place

If you have a missing tooth, an implant is one option alongside a bridge or a removable denture. At Manhal, Dr. Fariba Alnoory checks your general dental health first, and suitable implant cases are planned by the clinic’s implant team using CBCT 3D imaging to measure bone and nerve positions. Keeping diagnosis, surgery and the final crown within one clinic helps avoid repeated records and conflicting advice. Before treatment you receive a written, itemised plan covering each stage. Manhal Medical Center holds DHA facility licence 0001723, and you can check each dentist’s licence and title on the DHA Sheryan register.

A check-up is a full examination of teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues. Problems found early are simpler, quicker and less costly to treat.
