Complex extractions, bone grafting, sinus lifts, and full-arch surgery. Led by Dr. Hussien Tahoun — Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, PhD, 35+ years of surgical expertise.
What Is Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery?
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery covers surgical procedures involving the mouth, jaws, face, and neck. At Vision Dental Clinic, our oral surgeon in Abu Dhabi is Dr. Hussien Tahoun — Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon with a PhD and a Master's in Aesthetic Implant Dentistry from the University of Bern, Switzerland.
Dr. Hussien's 35+ years of experience span thousands of complex cases — from tooth extraction and impacted wisdom tooth removal to bone grafting, sinus augmentation, and full-arch reconstruction for implant treatment.
Our Surgical Capabilities
Simple and complex wisdom tooth extraction — including impacted wisdom tooth removal for angled or deeply embedded teeth. CBCT imaging ensures the safest surgical approach, especially near nerve canals.
Where bone volume is insufficient for implants, bone grafting rebuilds the jaw. We use autogenous, xenograft, and synthetic grafting materials depending on your specific case.
When upper jaw bone is too thin for implants, a sinus augmentation adds bone height in the posterior maxilla. Both lateral window and crestal approaches are performed at our clinic.
Impacted canines or other unerupted teeth are surgically exposed to allow orthodontic guidance into the correct position.
Retained roots, fractured teeth, teeth with curved roots, or those near critical anatomy require surgical extraction Abu Dhabi — performed under full anaesthesia control by our specialist oral surgeon.
Full mouth reconstruction combining multiple extractions, bone management, and immediate implant placement for complete arch rehabilitation in a single surgical session.
How It Works
Thorough examination and imaging to evaluate the surgical site, surrounding anatomy, and overall oral health before planning any procedure.
3D cone-beam CT scan for precise surgical planning, mapping bone density, nerve canals, sinus position, and blood vessel proximity.
Surgical approach, recovery timeline, and cost are prepared based on diagnostic findings. You know exactly what to expect before any procedure begins.
Dr. Hussien Tahoun personally reviews and approves every surgical case to ensure the highest standard of care and appropriate technique selection.

Anxiety-Free Surgery
Nitrous oxide (N₂O), commonly known as laughing gas, is one of the safest and most widely used sedation methods in dentistry. Administered through a small nasal mask, it produces a calming, euphoric sensation that significantly reduces anxiety and discomfort during surgical procedures.
How it works: The patient breathes a carefully controlled mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. Within 2–3 minutes, a warm, relaxed feeling sets in. The patient remains fully conscious and responsive throughout the procedure but feels deeply calm and detached from discomfort.
Key advantages: Unlike IV sedation or general anesthesia, nitrous oxide wears off within 3–5 minutes after the mask is removed. Patients can drive themselves home and resume normal activities immediately. There is no prolonged drowsiness, no fasting requirement, and the sedation depth can be adjusted in real time by the surgeon.
Ideal for: Patients with dental anxiety or phobia, complex or lengthy procedures such as wisdom tooth extraction, sinus lifts, bone grafting, and patients with a strong gag reflex.
