As your dentist, I believe that every small detail matters. To make sure I deliver the most precise and comfortable treatments, I use magnification tools like loupes and, in more advanced cases, microscopes. These allow me to see what the naked eye can’t, helping me work more accurately, gently, and with results that last.
Dentistry is all about precision. Even the smallest detail can make the difference between a treatment that is successful and one that falls short. That is why modern dentists increasingly rely on magnification tools such as loupes or dental microscopes.

That’s why at Sky Clinic Dental Center, our specialist Dr. Maysoun Ahmad, an experienced endodontist, uses a dental microscope for her treatments. This ensures that root canal procedures are carried out with the highest precision and attention to detail, helping patients keep their natural teeth healthy for many years to come.
