All oral and dental health treatments such as dental prosthesis, preventive dentistry, pediatric dentistry, orthodontics (malpositioned teeth), endodontics (root canal treatment), conservative treatment, periodontics (gum diseases) and oral surgeries are carried out in our Oral and Dental Health Department.
In addition, we serve patients in specialized branches including the Cosmetic Dentistry, Laser Dentistry, Advanced Implantation, Advanced Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) and Sleep Dentistry (with general anesthesia).
 
One of the primary characteristics of our department is the provision of “hospital dentistry” procedures. In this context, we collaborate with 33 other medical departments, 15 special units and 635 physicians in the hospital through references and consultations. Patients with serious systemic diseases and patients who are receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy are considered part of this group so their dental treatments can be quickly and safely completed in the hospital.
 
Having been restructured and put into service in 2010, the Oral and Dental Health Clinic renders services in line with the standards of our facility in all aspects, as it is an integrated part of the American Hospital.
