AJ

Dubai-Based Pediatric Dentist and Gentle Smile Specialist

Hey!

I'm Dr. Jafri

Choosing a dentist for your child takes trust, and I am committed to earning it. I am a Pediatric Dentist with 16 years of specialised experience, focused entirely on giving children safe, comfortable, and positive dental visits. My clinical foundation was shaped during my years at the CBAHI and JCI accredited King Salman Armed Forces Hospital in Saudi Arabia, where I gained deep experience with advanced protocols and high-standard care.

My work includes advanced pediatric sedation, dental trauma management, and gentle, personalised treatment for special needs and medically compromised children. I also handle the full range of pediatric procedures such as pulpotomies, RCT, stainless steel crowns, space maintainers, and early orthodontic screening. At Noor Al Sama Medical Centre in Dubai, I provide complete dental care from a child’s first tooth through the teen years.

My philosophy is simple: no fear, just fun. I use behaviour-focused methods like Tell-Show-Do, modelling, and positive reinforcement to make each visit relaxed and enjoyable. I communicate comfortably in English and Hindi, with working proficiency in Arabic.

How I create happy, healthy smiles

Preventive Dentistry
Healthy smiles begin with prevention! From your child’s first dental visit to regular checkups, we focus on early prevention. Services include fluoride varnish, sealants, cleanings, and nutritional guidance to keep cavities away.
Restorative & Conservative Treatments
Repairing tiny teeth with gentle hands. We restore decayed or damaged teeth using tooth-colored fillings, stainless steel crowns, pulpotomy, and space maintainers — preserving your child’s natural smile and function.
Behavior Management
Turning dental visits into positive experiences. Using “Tell-Show-Do,” positive reinforcement, and gentle distraction, we help children feel relaxed and confident. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and general anesthesia are available when needed.
Dental Trauma Management
Quick, expert care when accidents happen. We treat chipped, fractured, or knocked-out teeth, soft-tissue injuries, and dental emergencies with precision and care — ensuring your child’s comfort and recovery.
Habit Correction & Myofunctional Therapy
Helping children break bad habits early. We manage thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, and mouth breathing with custom myofunctional appliances that promote healthy jaw and muscle development.
Minor Orthodontic & Early Interceptive Treatment
Guiding teeth and jaws as they grow. Early screening and minor orthodontic treatments correct crossbites, spacing, and bite issues. Functional and orthopedic appliances help guide proper jaw growth.
Special Needs & Medically Compromised Children
Gentle care for every child. Our compassionate approach ensures safe, effective treatment for children with medical or developmental needs — including sedation and hospital-based care when required.
Emergency Dental Care
Fast help when your child needs it most. We provide immediate relief for toothaches, swelling, infections, or broken teeth — offering same-day appointments for urgent cases.
Minor Oral Surgical Procedures
Safe, child-focused surgical care. Procedures include baby-tooth extractions, tongue-tie and lip-tie release, and minor oral surgeries — performed with utmost comfort and precision.
Adolescent Dental Care
Healthy smiles through the teenage years. From wisdom tooth checks to preventive cleanings and sports mouthguards, we help teens maintain confidence and long-term oral health.
School Dental Programs & Community Outreach
Promoting dental health beyond the clinic. We organize school dental checkups, fluoride varnish applications, and parent-teacher awareness workshops — nurturing bright smiles in the community.
Tele-Dentistry & Online Consultations
Dental advice anytime, anywhere. Parents can connect with Dr. Jafri for online consultations, emergency advice, or follow-up visits — right from the comfort of home.
“

In the demanding field of pediatric dentistry, it’s easy to focus only on the technical aspects. However, I believe that building trust and creating a positive, fun environment is just as crucial for a child’s lifelong dental health. My goal is to be a compassionate guide, helping every child feel confident and cared for.
