Top 5 Dentists in New Amman Bus Station Area 2026

When do you need a dentist?

Dentistry covers the diagnosis and treatment of problems affecting the teeth, gums and mouth. That ranges from a small cavity or a cleaning to root canal treatment, extractions, crowns, bridges, dentures and oral surgery. Many problems, such as early decay and gum inflammation, cause few symptoms at first. Regular check-ups exist to catch them before they hurt.

Book a dental appointment if you notice:

• Tooth or gum pain that lasts more than a day or two, or keeps coming back
• Gums that bleed when you brush or floss
• A visible hole, dark spot, crack or chipped tooth
• Sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet foods that is getting worse
• A filling or crown that feels loose or has come out
• Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth
• Adult teeth that feel loose, or gums that seem to be pulling back
• A sore, ulcer or patch in the mouth that has not healed within about two weeks

Many people are advised to have a check-up about every six months. Your dentist may suggest a shorter or longer interval depending on your own oral health. Children benefit from seeing a dentist early, ideally once the first teeth appear, so that decay can be prevented rather than treated.

Warning signs that need urgent care

Some dental problems cannot wait for a routine appointment. Call 911 or go to a hospital emergency department if you have:

• Swelling of the face, jaw or neck that is spreading, or swelling around the eye
• Difficulty breathing, swallowing or opening the mouth
• Fever or feeling very unwell together with a dental swelling
• Bleeding after an extraction that does not stop after firm pressure with gauze
• A serious injury to the face or jaw

Hospitals in Irbid governorate include King Abdullah University Hospital, Princess Basma Teaching Hospital, Prince Rashid bin Al-Hassan Military Hospital and Irbid Specialty Hospital.

If an adult (permanent) tooth is knocked out, see a dentist as quickly as possible, ideally within the hour. Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root, and rinse it briefly if it is dirty. Do not scrub it. Keep it in milk or in the mouth against the cheek. Baby teeth should not be put back in. A child with a knocked-out baby tooth should still be checked.

How to choose among the dentists here

If you searched for the best dentists in New Amman Bus Station area, remember that this list is ordered by how complete each profile is, not by skill. The more useful question is which clinic fits your situation. Practical points to weigh:

• Match the treatment to the profile. For crowns, bridges or implant planning, note that Dr. Raghas Khasawneh's profile lists the Jordanian Board in Prosthodontics and Dental Implantology. For orthodontic questions, Al-Waleed Dental Care and Dr. Yaqoob Kittaneh's clinic list orthodontics among their care areas. Dr. Omima Obiedat's biography says orthodontic and implant enquiries are discussed after assessment.
• Children. All five profiles list treatment of tooth decay and inflammation in children. Al-Waleed Dental Care also names children's dentistry as a care area.
• Opening hours. Dr. Raghas Khasawneh's clinic opens from 08:00 on weekdays. Dr. Omima Obiedat sees patients from 11:00 to 18:00. Dr. Yaqoob Kittaneh's clinic stays open until 22:00. For Al-Waleed Dental Care, confirm times with reception.
• Treatments that take several visits. Root canal treatment, crowns, bridges and implants usually need more than one appointment. Pick a clinic you can reach easily and repeatedly.
• X-rays on site. Every profile here lists panoramic X-ray (OPG), which can save a separate trip for imaging.
• Ask about training. Any dentist can tell you about their qualifications and experience with the specific procedure you need. It is reasonable to ask.
• Personal preference. Some patients prefer a female or male dentist. Dr. Raghas Khasawneh and Dr. Omima Obiedat are female, and Dr. Yaqoob Kittaneh is male.

What to expect at the first visit

A first visit usually starts with questions about your symptoms and general health, followed by an examination of the teeth, gums and soft tissues. The dentist may suggest X-rays if they are needed to see decay between teeth, the roots or the jawbone. You should then hear what was found and what the options are, including the option of waiting or doing nothing, where that is safe.

What to bring

• A list of all medicines you take, including blood thinners and any medicines for bone conditions
• Details of health conditions such as diabetes, heart problems or bleeding disorders, and any allergies
• Whether you are or might be pregnant, which affects decisions about X-rays and some treatments
• Any recent dental X-rays or treatment records
• Your ID and insurance card, if you have one
• For children, a parent or guardian who knows the child's medical history

Questions worth asking

• What exactly is the problem, and what happens if I leave it?
• What are the treatment options, and how do they compare in durability and number of visits?
• What will each step cost, and is there a written estimate?
• What should I expect afterwards, and when should I call the clinic?

If you feel anxious about dental treatment, say so when booking. Dentists can explain each step and agree on a signal for you to pause.

Insurance, fees and booking: what to ask before the appointment

Dental costs vary widely between a simple check-up and treatment such as root canals, zirconium crowns or implants. Ask before you commit:

• What does the first consultation cost, and are X-rays charged separately?
• Can I have a written treatment plan with the cost of each stage?
• Does the clinic accept my insurer, and does my policy cover dental treatment at all? Many medical policies limit or exclude cosmetic work such as whitening.
• Does my insurer need pre-approval before treatment starts?
• For multi-visit work, is payment due at once or per stage?
• What is the policy for cancelling or rescheduling?

Book through the contact details on each profile. For the two dentists at Al-Waleed Dental Care, reception handles consultations and follow-up.
