Philosophy

When he first meets his patients, Dr. Husam Almunajed wants to know what they dream about and what ambitious plans they have for their own futures. “What is it about some people that makes them so attractive? Is it the sparkle in their eye or the smoothness of their skin,” he asks. “More than likely, it’s their brilliant smile that first draws you in, as our smiles affect the look and shape of our faces.” He believes a beautiful smile is your best asset for good first impressions: “This very special form of nonverbal communication can display much more intense emotions than only words. Each smile is unique and beautiful smiles should suit the face and character of each particular patient,” he says. Just as a successful architect takes various aspects into consideration when designing a building, Dr. Almunajed focuses not only on form and function, but also on the personality, occupation and lifestyle of each of his patients. “The smile is a reflection of that individual,” he adds.

A Minute With

How important is a great smile?

A smile reflects a person’s inner
self. As each smile is unique to that
person, a beautiful smile should
be one that is so suitable to the face
and character of that patient that
it appears to be perfectly natural
What do you like most about your profession?

The thing I love most is the ability to
create. It really is such a pleasure to
have the patient pool in my practice
and the ability to recreate the way
someone looks by crafting a new
smile. Most people don’t understand
how much your smile controls the
overall appearance of their face, but
when they do—it’s a very powerful
thing. Working with patients in this
unique way allows my artistic side
to take over and puts me in a very
calm, enjoyable space
What are you most proud of about your practice?

The level of care, service and overall
experience of going to see a dentist.
We are redefining the experience!
What is the one piece of advice you offer every patient about maintaining their smile?

Dentistry has evolved past filling
cavities and curing diseases. Today,
it’s about quality of life and ensuring
overall good health and happiness
What is the one thing your practice offers that is really unique?

The vision I have had for my practice
encompasses more than just my
views—I also ask my entire staff
to share their story of a labor of
love. We want you to feel cared for
beyond just your immediate oralcare
needs. As your chosen dentist,
I want you to know that your overall
treatment plan is of great concern
and that you’ll be married to us for
life, so to speak. I want our patients
to know that it’s not just about
teeth, but that they are special, too.
Our dentist-patient relationship is
special, and meeting their goals,
and building and maintaining their
trust are of the highest importance
The perfect smile is...

One you are
happy with!
Words to live by

“The noblest art is that
of making others happy.”
—P.T. Barnum
Three words that best describe me

Passionate, easy-going,
hardworking
What sets your practice apart?

The level of care,
service and overall
experience of going to
the dentist. Attached
to every tooth is a
human being. We
are redefining the
experience!
How do you make the best first impression?

We greet every patient in a private,
comfortable consult room, to
discuss your concerns. We will give
you the time you need to help you
make the treatment decision that
is right for your individual care
