About the clinic · Est. 2008

Dentistry, Reimagined.

Not a chain, not a template. One clinic on the ninth floor of a tower in Sharq, built by a prosthodontist who came home from London with a specific idea about how a first appointment should go.

Level 9, Crystal Tower — nine rooms, a surgical suite, and a design lab visible from the corridor.

Eighteen years

One room, then nine.

    The Beginning

    Dr. Yasmin Al-Rashed returns from nine years in London and opens Aurelia on Level 9 of Crystal Tower with one treatment room, one nurse and a waiting list of four.

    The first year is almost entirely restorative work and second opinions.

    Digital Dentistry

    The last impression tray is put away. Intraoral scanning replaces putty across the whole clinic, and every case from this point exists as a file that can be compared against itself years later.

    Three treatment rooms, and the first in-house milling unit.

    Advanced Implant Centre

    Dr. Karim Haddad joins from Frankfurt and the surgical department opens. Freehand implant placement stops entirely; every case is planned on CBCT and placed through a printed guide.

    Six rooms, a dedicated surgical suite and a CBCT scanner.

    3D Smile Design

    Facial scanning and video smile analysis are folded into the restorative workflow. Patients begin wearing their new smile for a week before anything is prepared.

    The trial smile becomes standard on every anterior case.

    The Future of Dentistry

    The design suite opens on Level 9 with milling, printing, a furnace and our ceramist in one room. The whole restorative workflow now happens inside the building.

    Nine rooms, six specialists, and a glass wall so patients can watch.

Precision

01

Precision

Measured, not estimated.

Every implant position, every gum measurement, every shade is recorded as a number rather than an impression. It is the only way a result can be compared against itself in five years — and the only honest basis for telling a patient whether something has changed.

  • Six-point periodontal charting at every examination
  • Fully guided implant placement, without exception
  • Calibrated shade measurement under fixed light
Comfort

02

Comfort

Quiet is a clinical decision.

The corridors do not smell clinical. Appointments are longer than they need to be. Sedation is offered rather than waited for. None of this is decoration — a patient who is not braced against the chair gives better information, tolerates longer appointments and comes back.

  • Longer appointments as standard, not as an upgrade
  • Inhalation and IV sedation available in every room
  • A first paediatric visit with no treatment at all
Confidence

03

Confidence

You should be able to explain your own treatment.

Every plan is shown on screen using your own images, priced in writing before anything begins, and explained in language that does not require a dental degree. If you cannot repeat the reasoning back to someone at home, we have not finished the conversation.

  • Written, itemised plans before treatment starts
  • Your own radiographs and photographs on screen
  • The option of doing nothing, presented honestly

Inside

A quiet floor, most of the time.

Come and see

The first hour is a conversation.

A first appointment runs sixty minutes: an examination, your own images on screen, and a written plan with a price. Nothing is treated on the day unless you are in pain.

Or call +965 2242 8800 — Sunday to Thursday, 9:00 to 20:00.
