Ambulatory Healthcare Services (AHS), a subsidiary of PureHealth, the largest healthcare group in the Middle East, recently demonstrated the transformative power of specialised dental care in boosting patient confidence and enhancing quality of life through a successful case at Mafraq Dental Centre. With its network of centres spread across Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, AHS is committed to providing patient-centred, accessible healthcare that enhances community well-being across Abu Dhabi.
The patient, Dr Faisal Al Marzougi, presented with significant dental issues—missing teeth, cavities, and misalignment—experienced a severe decline in confidence, particularly in social and public speaking. Dr Mohamed Elsaka, Senior GP Dentist/Implantologist at Mafraq Dental Centre, developed a comprehensive treatment plan incorporating crowns, veneers, and braces. The result was a remarkable improvement in the patient’s oral health, self-esteem, and social interactions.
This local success is aligned with global health initiatives to address oral diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly half of the global population is affected by oral diseases, making it one of the most widespread noncommunicable diseases. Cases like Dr Faisal’s highlight the critical need for accessible, high-quality dental care worldwide.
AHS is addressing these global health challenges locally through its three key dental facilities: Al Dhafra Dental Centre, Al Ain Dental Centre, and Mafraq Dental Centre. These centres provide a broad range of dental services, including general dentistry, paediatric dentistry, periodontics, oral surgery, endodontics, orthodontics, implantology, and prosthodontics. By integrating state-of-the-art dental technologies and a comprehensive array of specialities, AHS delivers high-quality care that significantly improves diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes.
Dr Faisal Almarzougi, said, “I’ve always had a natural fear of dental procedures and injections, but my experience with Dr Mohamed was entirely different. The comprehensive treatment I received was not only pain-free but truly life-changing. I feel more confident, my smile has been transformed, and I genuinely feel like a new person. The results surpassed all my expectations, and I’m incredibly grateful to the team for helping me rediscover my happiness and self-confidence.”
Dr Mohamed Elsaka, Senior GP Dentist/Implantologist at Mafraq Dental Centre, said, “Seeing our patients thrive after treatment is what drives us each day. Our aim at AHS goes beyond simply addressing dental issues; we are committed to transforming lives by restoring confidence and improving the overall quality of life. This success story reflects our mission of delivering patient-centred care that is accessible, comprehensive, and tailored to individual needs.”
The AHS portfolio comprises 31 multi-speciality healthcare centres with state-of-the-art outpatient facilities, three dental speciality centres, 18 Disease Prevention and Screening Centres offering visa screening and disease control services in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra Regions, School Health Services at 207 public schools in the Emirate, and five Mobile Clinic Solutions extending accessible healthcare with the latest screening technology across the Emirate, including remote areas.
