About

Dr. Rabih Mahfouz is a Specialist Orthodontist with over 17 years of experience and one of the founding members of the Dubai Sky Clinic team. He moved to Dubai in 2003 and has since focused exclusively on orthodontic practice, treating both young and adult patients. Dr. Mahfouz offers a wide range of orthodontic solutions—from removable appliances and completely invisible, customised systems to conventional metal and ceramic braces.

Dr. Mahfouz supports early dento-facial orthopedic treatment for young children starting at the age of 7, a strategy that improves growth patterns, eliminates functional issues, and enhances long-term treatment stability. For teenagers and adults, he follows a treatment philosophy of Facial Focused Orthodontics, aiming to create smiles that suit each individual while maintaining optimal oral biological function.

He obtained his Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) in 1998 from the Lebanese University in Beirut, followed by a full-time, three-year specialisation in Orthodontics at Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France. Despite his extensive experience, Dr. Mahfouz remains committed to continuous professional development, regularly attending education programs with leading instructors worldwide to stay at the forefront of orthodontic innovations. Known for his kind and friendly approach, he builds lasting relationships with his patients, who often refer their friends and family for treatment.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
