Question 1

What dental treatments does the clinic provide?

Accepted Answer

Our clinic provides comprehensive dental care, from routine check-ups and hygiene to restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, endodontics, oral surgery and dental implants.

Question 2

Does Dr Shadi carry out the treatments himself?

Accepted Answer

Dr Shadi personally carries out many of the clinic’s key procedures, including veneers, dental implants, and extractions. He is also supported by a wider team of dental specialists, allowing patients to receive comprehensive care.

Question 3

Is the clinic a multispeciality dental practice?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The clinic brings together a multidisciplinary team, including expertise in endodontics, restorative dentistry, orthodontics and dental hygiene, alongside implant and cosmetic dentistry.

Question 4

What type of dental implants do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use high-quality dental implant systems. Straumann® dental implants are premium Swiss-engineered implants designed to replace missing teeth and restore natural-looking function and aesthetics. Known for their precision, high-quality materials and advanced surface technologies.

Question 5

Can I have an implant on the same day as my tooth extraction?

Accepted Answer

In suitable cases, yes. Immediate implant placement can sometimes be carried out at the same appointment as tooth extraction. But, this depends on different factors. Each case needs to be assessed individually.

Question 6

Can I have a temporary tooth on the same day as my implant?

Accepted Answer

In selected cases, a temporary tooth can be placed on the same day as implant surgery. This is often referred to as immediate provisionalisation. Whether this is possible depends on the individual case and the stability of the implant.

Question 7

How long after an implant can I have my permanent crown?

Accepted Answer

The timing varies depending on the patient’s healing, bone quality and implant stability. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, the final crown can be planned and fitted. This generally takes around 2 months.

Question 8

How long does a dental implant take?

Accepted Answer

The overall treatment time varies from patient to patient. Some cases can be completed relatively quickly, while others require additional procedures such as bone grafting or gum treatment.

Question 9

Is dental implant surgery painful?

Accepted Answer

The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the surgery. Appropriate aftercare and medication can be provided if required.

Question 10

Will I need a bone graft before having implants?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. This depends on the amount and quality of bone available. If additional bone is required, procedures such as bone grafting or guided bone regeneration may be recommended.

Question 11

Can you replace several missing teeth with implants?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Depending on your individual situation, implants can be used to replace single teeth, multiple teeth or to support a full-arch restoration.

Question 12

What types of veneers do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the patient’s needs, we can provide different types of veneers, including E.max, feldspathic and composite/mixed veneer options.

Question 13

What is the difference between E.max and feldspathic veneers?

Accepted Answer

Both are highly aesthetic ceramic options, but they have different properties and indications. The choice depends on factors such as the desired appearance, tooth position, bite, tooth structure and functional requirements.

Question 14

Which veneers are the most natural-looking?

Accepted Answer

Feldspathic veneers provide the most highly natural results.

Question 15

Do veneers require shaving down my teeth?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, minimal preparation is possible, while other cases require slightly more preparation. Dr Shady uses high magnification microscope (25x) to ensure the most conservative preparation.

Question 16

Can I have veneers without having my teeth shaved?

Accepted Answer

In selected cases, no-preparation veneers may be appropriate. However, this isn’t suitable for everyone.

Question 17

How long do veneers last?

Accepted Answer

Veneers last approximately 5-10 years with appropriate oral hygiene, regular dental checkups and good habits. Their longevity also depends on factors such as biting forces, diet and the quality of the underlying teeth.

Question 18

Can I have an implant immediately after an extraction?

Accepted Answer

In suitable cases, yes. Immediate implant placement may allow the extraction and implant placement to be completed during the same treatment session.

Question 19

Do you perform gum contouring or gum plasty?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dr Shadi carries out gum contouring/gum plasty where appropriate, particularly when gum levels or excessive gum display affect the aesthetics of a patient’s smile.

Question 20

Can gum treatment be combined with cosmetic dentistry?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Gum contouring can sometimes form part of a wider smile-design treatment plan alongside veneers or crowns, depending on the patient’s needs.

Question 21

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

Accepted Answer

Every treatment starts with a comprehensive assessment. Your teeth, gums, bite, bone levels, facial aesthetics and overall oral health are considered before a treatment plan is recommended.

Question 22

Do I need an X-ray before an implant?

Accepted Answer

Implant planning often requires detailed imaging to assess the available bone and the position of important anatomical structures.

Question 23

Do you have a price list?

Accepted Answer

We offer different treatment options and price ranges depending on each patient’s individual needs. For our current price list and treatment costs, please contact the clinic directly.

Question 24

What is a bone graft and where does it come from?

Accepted Answer

A bone graft is a biocompatible biomaterial placed into areas of deficiency to stimulate new bone formation. It can be autogenous bone, sterile natural bone matrix, or synthetic bone scaffolds. Dr. Shadi selects the optimal biomaterial based on 3D CBCT measurements.

Question 25

What is the difference between internal and external sinus lift?

Accepted Answer

An internal (crestal) sinus lift is performed directly through the implant osteotomy when vertical deficiency is mild, allowing simultaneous placement. An external (lateral window) lift is performed through a micro-surgical lateral window when residual bone is severely atrophied (under 4mm) to rebuild substantial vertical volume safely.

Question 26

Are dental implants suitable for patients with diabetes or smokers?

Accepted Answer

Controlled diabetes (with stable HbA1c levels) is generally not a contraindication to successful implant therapy following thorough medical clearance. Smoking reduces peripheral blood supply and slows osseointegration; therefore, patients are strongly advised to cease smoking prior to surgery and throughout healing.

Question 27

Why do dental implant prices vary between clinics in Jordan?

Accepted Answer

Pricing reflects comprehensive clinical standards: implant system origin and clinical pedigree (such as genuine Swiss Straumann fixtures with global warranty), 3D CBCT digital guided surgery, custom CAD/CAM zirconia abutments and crowns versus generic cast metal, and surgical microscope execution. Always evaluate the full inclusions in the written plan rather than base figures alone.
