Who is suitable for Dental Implants?

Adults with good general health. In cases with severe bone loss, a Bone Grafting procedure might be needed before inserting Dental Implants. Check our Bone Grafting leaflet for more info.
To assess if you have enough jaw bone, our specialist will perform a CBCT Scan, the latest 3D Imaging technique used to evaluate the height and the width of the bone available for implant placement.

What does the procedure involve?

Once a treatment plan has been designed for your individual needs, a screw-like implant is placed into the socket of the missing tooth. Before any replacement teeth can be added, your mouth will need to heal from six to 16 weeks for the jawbone to secure around the implant.
After the healing period is over, an abutment is placed on top of the implant. This is a small connector that keeps the crown secured to the implant. Your dentist will then make an impression of your teeth, which will be used as a model for the replacement tooth. This tooth will be matched to the color of your natural teeth and function just as your other teeth do.

Is it painful?

The procedure is normally conducted under local anesthesia, although some complex cases might require sedation or even GA. The day after the surgery you may experience some swelling and bruising, which will resolve in a couple of days.

How long will Dental Implants last?

They usually last as original teeth for patients who regularly brush, floss, and follow the dental recommendations made at their check-ups. However, Dental implants in smokers are four times as likely to fail when compared to implants in non-smokers. Smoking leads to gum recession and disease, making the implant structure weaken over time.

Max Fax™ Sculpting

This signature technique by Dr. Maen is based on the maxillo-facial knowledge of the patient’s own facial bones features. Since every person is unique, by carefully studying individual aesthetic proportions and relating them to the underlying facial structure (dermal thickness and bones’ position), the result obtained is a bespoke enhanced definition of cheeks, chin and jaw line. The material injected is Hyaluronic Acid, and depending on the patient’s own facial features, Dr. Maen will use different types of fillers. When treating volume loss, Volume Dermal Fillers are injected onto the bone or deeper in the soft tissue; while when treating lines and wrinkles, the injections are performed under the skin, in tiny amounts to obtain a ‘lift effect’. Dr. Maen is the ‘artist’ who will decide which one is most suitable for each case.

Max Fax™ Face Lift

Since the Max Fax™ method is extremely customized and tailored on patient’s needs, Dr. Maen’s Max Fax™ Face Lift technique aims to restore a plumber and more youthful appearance for patients over 40. The technique involves the use of medical threads that are inserted in specific areas to target the sagging of the skin and slow the ageing process. The Max Fax™ Face Lift is the best choice to treat droopy eyebrows, sleepy eyes, sagging jawline and double chin. The technique can be used in combination with the Face Sculpting for a complete profile enhancement.

Max Fax™ Surgery

The Max-Fax Face Sculpting technique is brought to a different level with this approach. The method involves the initial calculation of the patient’s own aesthetic proportions in combination with the evaluation of their facial bones’ structure and position. The case-study might involve the intervention of different specialties in the view to correct specific areas, such as excessive gingival display (gingivoplasty), upper and lower jaw (orthognatic surgery), chin bone (ginoplasty), maxillary bone (jaw implants) or cheeks bones (cheeks implants), or, in some cases, even multiple areas. After the initial correction process has been completed, the Max-Fax Surgery will take place to enhance those corrections through the application of facial implants. Patients enjoy the end result, as it is permanent and completely tailored to their own facial features, meaning that they still find themselves in the mirror yet with harmony and enhanced appearance.

Fox Eyes by Max Fax™

One of the latest trends in aesthetic procedures, created by Dr. Maen and one of the most requested internationally. The target area are the eyes, upper and lower eye-lids, eyebrows. The procedure can be performed with three different techniques, depending on each case. For younger patients, usually the method comprise the use of Botox in specific amounts around the eyes and eyebrows to achieve the “Foxy Eye look”. In patients with mildly sagging eyelids and droopy eyebrows, the method is performed non-invasivally by the insertion of medical threads. For more aged skin, the method is easily performed by tiny surgical cut at the base of the hairline or the eyebrow and the skin is lifted, along with the underlying muscle, to achieve the sharp look. In more advanced cases, in conjunction with droopy eyes, the Fox Eyes technique involves the surgical procedures of upper and lower blepharoplasty, i.e. eye-lid surgery. The end result is the “Foxy Eyes look”, a sharp, sexy, youthful glare, sported by many actors and models around the world.

Lip Laser

This one-of-a-kind procedure was first implemented in the UAE by Dr. Maen Al Khateeb in 2010, thanks to his Master Degree in Laser from Achen University (Germany) and more than 25 years of experience in the field. The Lip Laser procedure aims to reduce the appearance of dark spots on the lips and gums, by specifically targeting melanine pigmentation, and restoring natural lips and gums colour. Although the melanin pigmentation of the gingiva and the lips is a completely benign condition and does not represent a medical problem, yet it represents aesthetical source of concerns for many patients. Laser Depigmentation is based on selective photothermolysis principle. Laser energy is transformed into ablation energy, resulting in cellular rupture and vaporization with minimal heating of the surrounding tissue. Different laser techniques have been used for treatment of oral melanin pigmentation, The technique requires high accuracy and precision and involves the depigmentation of the lips through the utilization of Laser by using specific parameters, different for each case.

Otoplasty

Otoplasty (also known as Pinnaplasty or Ear Pinning Surgery) is a type of a surgical procedure used for the correction of prominent ears. This procedure is also known as otoplasty or ear pinning. This ear plastic surgery is conducted on people of both the sexes and of all ages, who wish to correct their ears that tend to stick out.
Some people may not bother about the “bat” shape of their ears, but, for others, continuous comments from others can lead to distress, particularly during school years. Otoplasty is the best and simple procedure that can solve the problem safely and quickly.
Ear pinning surgery involves making an incision just behind the ear in the natural fold where the ear joins the head. This lets the surgeon reshape the ear by removing some part of the cartilage. The surgeon can then use permanent internal stitches to keep the ears in their new place
