AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Facial injuries
Facial injuries cause lasting damage, both physical and emotional. Specialised treatment restores function and appearance.
Implantology
Dental implantology replaces missing teeth with permanent implants anchored in the jawbone, restoring function and a natural appearance.
Wisdom tooth removal
Wisdom teeth cause trouble when they erupt poorly or get impacted. A smooth removal solution treats such cases.
Bone grafting
Missing teeth can cause jawbone loss. Bone grafting rebuilds bone for successful dental implant placement.
Oral pathology
Oral pathology is a dental specialty focused on diagnosing diseases affecting the mouth, head, and neck.

PATIENT FEEDBACK
I would like to extend a huge thank you to Dr Ebrahim Fakir and his amazing team. I recently went on a journey to have the perfect smile after having to use dentures. With a combined effort from the amazing doctors and team, I was able to regain my confidence and boost my self-esteem.

Dr Fakir and his staff are just incredible. I highly recommend him. I have had a bad experience in the past with removing two compacted wisdom teeth and when I went to Dr Fakir for the other two, it was actually a great experience! And the healing went so well!
