Beirut has no shortage of dental clinics. What it has always needed — and what patients travel from across the Gulf and Africa to access — is a surgeon who combines genuine oral surgery expertise with the precision of modern implant technology in a hospital-grade environment.
Dr. Habib Zarifeh is Head of Oral Surgery at CMC Hospital Beirut — Clemenceau Medical Center, Johns Hopkins International affiliated. He holds an MSc in Laser Dentistry from RWTH Aachen University, Germany, and an MS in Oral Surgery. As founder of Smile Infinity® across 12 countries and inventor of the One Day Implant® protocol, he has placed thousands of implants across every level of complexity over more than 20 years.
His One Day Implant® protocol remains unique in Beirut — laser-assisted flapless surgery, no incisions, no sutures, with the implant and crown completed in a single visit for qualifying cases. For patients who cannot spend weeks in Beirut, this changes everything.
Whether you need a single tooth replaced, a full mouth rebuilt, or bone grafting before an implant can be placed — this is where you start.
Beirut is a city where patients are sophisticated and expectations are high. They have seen other clinics. They know what good care looks like. When they choose Dr. Zarifeh, it is because they want more than a competent procedure — they want surgical excellence in a world-class environment.
CMC Hospital Beirut operates at a Johns Hopkins International standard — hospital-grade infection control, a sterile surgical environment, and a team that treats every implant case with the same rigour applied to any oral surgical procedure. This is not a private dental chair in a commercial building. It is a medical-grade facility.
The technology at our Beirut clinic includes 3D Dentascan imaging for surgical planning, intraoral digital scanning that replaces conventional impressions, Sirona MCXL CAD/CAM for chairside crown milling, and a laser-assisted surgical protocol that reduces post-operative discomfort and accelerates healing. These are not aspirational additions — they are standard at every case.
