Our services are some of the most technologically advanced to ensure that patients receive complete care without the pain, hassle and discomfort that is wrongfully associated with dental care. Our wholistic approach to dental care and the fact that we are located within a fully-fledged hospital also allows us to treat various types of patients to whom oral health is mandatory. For instance those with heart disease, diabetes and pregnant mothers are often referred to us by the respective clinics within and outside Durdans as it is imperative for such patients to have their oral health in check”.To maintain JCI standards all the equipment used in dental procedures at the centre is disposable or sterilized to ensure maximum patient safety. Special procedures are also in place to ensure pediatrics and medically compromised patients are managed and educated on proper brushing techniques and oral hygiene. Complex procedures are often carried out under sedation or general anesthesia in order to ensure that dental care is not a traumatic experience.

Because the problem was skillfully identified early and procedure carried out accurately I had to only wait for about half an hour to recover. I am extremely satisfied with the way patients are handled at the unit and the skill of the dental professionals there, and I will always recommend their services to friends and family.”
