Biography
Dr. Karim Haddad leads Aurelia's surgical department and has placed more than 4,000 implants since qualifying in 2010.
He trained in Beirut and completed his Master's in Oral Implantology at Goethe University in Frankfurt, where he worked on the guided-surgery protocols that became standard practice across Europe. He was an early adopter of fully guided placement in Kuwait and now runs every Aurelia implant case through CBCT planning and a printed surgical guide — a discipline that has kept the clinic's five-year implant survival rate at 98.4%.
His particular interest is in the cases other clinics decline: severe resorption, failed earlier implants, and immediate full-arch loading where the alternative offered elsewhere was a denture.
“Surgery should be the shortest, quietest part of the patient's day. Everything that makes it so happens weeks earlier, on a screen.”

Selected cases.
Implants · 5 months
A Single Front Tooth
The hardest implant in dentistry is a single central incisor next to a natural one. There is nowhere for an error to hide.
Implants · 6 months
The Full Arch, In One Day
Eleven failing upper teeth removed and a fixed bridge on six implants delivered the same afternoon.
Patients
“I spent four months convinced everyone could see the temporary. Nobody could. And now nobody can tell which tooth is the implant — including me.”
“I had been offered a denture twice and refused twice. I went in at eight in the morning with eleven bad teeth and had dinner with my family that evening.”
