Pioneer Achievement

The University Dental Center has achieved Canadian accreditation thanks to its outstanding accomplishments. On Sunday, September 22, 2024, the center performed its first dental treatment on a child under general anesthesia. This procedure is considered a significant advancement in dentistry, as it is utilized for patients with a severe fear of traditional treatments and during surgical operations that require general anesthesia due to the ineffectiveness of local anesthesia.

The treatment was carried out by Dr. Rafiq Al-Kawafi, a specialist in oral surgery and the Director of the University’s Dental Program, while the anesthetic was managed by Dr. Iman Al-Hassi, a specialist in anesthesia and critical care and the Director of the Clinical Skills Center, with the assistance of anesthesia technician Mr. Ahmed Al-Maghrabi.

This achievement reflects the center’s commitment to providing exceptional and effective healthcare, enhancing the confidence of patients and their families in the services offered.
