MedPalm Dental

MedPalm Dental is a specialized private medical center in Dubai. It opened in 2024 as part of the multidisciplinary MedPalm Clinic network. Its team follows a bite-centered functional philosophy. This means doctors plan treatment for the whole jaw system as one unit. Before any irreversible procedure, specialists in prosthodontics, orthodontics, and oral surgery agree on a shared plan.

Recognitions and Medical Team

The clinic earned 3rd place in Clinics Excellence at the Aesthetic Dentistry MENA Awards. This award came from the Center for Advanced Professional Practices (CAPP). In total, 7 doctors and over 20 employees work here. Specialists hold DHA Licenses and specific privileges for advanced dental care.

Key specialists on the dental team include:

• Dr. Kamila Akieva – Specialist Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon with 12 years of experience
• Dr. Svetlana Prisiazhnykh – Specialist Prosthodontist focused on TMJ and occlusion
• Dr. Oleg Mordanov – Specialist in bite dysfunction and aesthetic rehabilitation
• Dr. Elizaveta Kurashova – Specialist Orthodontist

All clinicians follow Vienna School of Interdisciplinary Dentistry (VieSID) protocols to sequence treatment.

Diagnostics and TMJ Treatment

The clinic specializes in diagnosing and treating TMJ dysfunction (TMD). Specialists assess jaw joints, chewing muscles, and bite stability together. Diagnostics include condylography, which tracks how the lower jaw moves. Doctors then use these results to guide therapy.

Complex jaw cases often need several types of imaging:

• Cone beam CT (CBCT) to check bone structure
• MRI to check the joint disc and soft tissues
• Intraoral digital scanning to map the teeth precisely
• Digital occlusal analysis to measure bite pressure

Each TMD treatment plan is personalized. It often starts with gentler options like splint therapy.

Specialized Dental Procedures

The oral surgery department handles planned and emergency tooth extractions. Dr. Kamila Akieva holds a DHA Implantology Privilege for full-arch rehabilitations. For implants, the clinic uses Nobel Biocare systems in both single-tooth and complex restorations. If bone volume is lacking, bone augmentation can restore it before implant placement.

Restorative dentistry uses minimally invasive techniques to keep as much healthy tooth as possible. Dental microscopes give specialists high precision during root canal treatment and cavity preparation. To catch early decay, the team uses transillumination. This finds cavities the naked eye can't see. Aesthetic work includes porcelain veneers and crowns made from E.max ceramic materials.

Children and teenagers can get:

• Treatment of cavities in baby and permanent teeth
• Early orthodontic assessments starting at age five
• Orthodontic appliances for children, such as the HAAS expander
• Care for dental injuries

A child's first visit is a 90-minute assessment. This gives the child time to build trust before treatment begins.

Advanced Equipment and Technology

The clinic has GAMMA diagnostic systems to analyze how the jaw functions. Surgeons and general dentists work with dental microscopes and magnifying loupes for restorative accuracy. Digital X-rays take panoramic and periapical images with less radiation. For cleanings, hygienists use the AirFlow system. It removes plaque with air and fine powder, so there's no scraping.

Services for Patients

MedPalm Dental offers several sedation options for patient comfort. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available on-site for patients who feel anxious. If someone needs general anesthesia, the clinic arranges the procedure at a partner hospital.

During treatment, patients can also use:

• Noise-canceling headphones
• Video glasses with streaming services
• Blankets

Consultations are available in English and Russian, which helps international residents and visitors. Every new patient has a structured 90-minute evaluation, so the treatment plan is clear from the start.
