Smile Dentist Clinic in Seef is prepared to give your smile the shine it rightly deserves.

The clinic, located at the Mashtan Residence, has been offering cosmetic dental solutions since 2006 and has recently become one of the first clinics in the Middle East to introduce the Six Month Smiles treatment.

Dr Ali Ahmed Qamber, cosmetic dentist and clinic owner, said: "With changing lifetyles, people have become more conscious of how they look and they are concerned about their appearances."

The 'Six Month Smiles' which was introduced last October uses special nickel titanium wires which help move teeth and emphasise the cosmetic appearance of the teeth.

The treatment's most unique feature is the use of tooth-coloured braces giving individuals the opportunity to have uneven teeth treated while not having to hide a smile.

It requires six months to gently straighten and achieve perfectly balanced teeth.

Dr Ali, pictured right, said: "It is transparent so it isn't visible unless you go really close. This is useful as people can wear it and not be uncomfortable to show their teeth.

"The treatment is also inexpensive as its cost is only two-thirds of the normal braces." Dr Ali is one of the only doctors in the Middle East to be certified with the Six Months Smiles braces programme.

The 37-year-old has a vast amount of experience and knowledge in cosmetic dental care and is constantly updating his knowledge by doing short courses and attending conferences conducted by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

The clinic also offers various other treatments including porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns, tooth whitening, gum reshaping, tooth replacement, white fillings, cosmetic contouring and cosmetic bonding alongside cleaning, tooth fillings, extraction and root canal.
