OK so I’ll admit it – I really don’t like going to the dentist. I don’t have particularly fond memories from when I was a child, and as a result of avoiding the dentist, I needed lots of work done when I first moved here. Over the past few years I’ve spent quite a lot of money getting my teeth to a point that I am happy with them, so I make sure I keep them that way with regular check-ups and hygienist visits.
What’s involved?
I made sure Dental Hygienist, Safiyah Adhamn was completely aware of just how sensitive my teeth are before my visit. So she had already prepared a topical numbing gel so my teeth could be given a thorough clean without having to remove me from the ceiling!
What are the results?
The combination of her gentle handling and the numbing gel allowed Safiyah to give my teeth a full clean and check, and I left with that awesome smooth and clean feeling afterwards!
How much?
Prices range from Dhs 350 to Dhs 650 – Dhs 350 would be for a child or a light 30 min cleaning, Dhs 550 is average and Dhs 650 is for a deep cleaning.
