General & Preventive Dentistry in Tripoli, Lebanon
Good dentistry is mostly quiet work done early. General and preventive care is the foundation of everything we do at the clinic — the regular check-ups, professional cleanings and small repairs that stop a minor issue from becoming a painful, expensive one. Dr. Barake treats every visit as a chance to keep your teeth healthy for the long term, not just to fix what hurts today.

In short
Check-ups, cleanings, fillings and gum care that keep problems small.

What it includes
A general appointment covers a full examination of your teeth, gums and bite, a professional scale-and-polish to remove plaque and tartar, and tooth-coloured fillings where decay has started. We also screen for gum disease, check existing restorations, and take digital X-rays only when they genuinely add information.
If we find something, you will hear about it in plain language — what it is, whether it needs treating now or can be watched, and what each option costs before anything is done.
Who it's for
Everyone — ideally twice a year. Preventive visits matter most if you have not seen a dentist in a while, notice bleeding when brushing, feel sensitivity to hot or cold, or simply want reassurance that everything is in order. Catching decay or early gum disease at this stage is straightforward; left alone, the same problem may later need a root canal or extraction.
What to expect
Your first visit is unhurried. We talk through your history and any concerns, examine carefully, and explain what we find. Cleanings and most fillings are completed the same day. There is no pressure and no upselling — only the treatment you actually need, sequenced sensibly.
Why Dr. Barake
Dr. Barake's approach to general dentistry is conservative: preserve healthy tooth structure, intervene gently, and prevent rather than repair. Modern equipment and careful technique mean appointments are comfortable, and clear, transparent pricing means no surprises.
What affects the cost
Every case is different, so the clinic gives you a clear, itemised price before any treatment begins. These are the main things that influence it:
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Type of treatment | A check-up and clean costs less than a filling or gum treatment. |
| Number of fillings | More surfaces or teeth to restore raises the total. |
| Filling material | Tooth-coloured composite is priced differently from other materials. |
| X-rays | Taken only when they add information, and priced separately. |
