The dentists and their experience
Dr Mark Sciberras qualified in Malta in 1985 and then completed a three year postgraduate course in orthodontics at Guy's Hospital in London and the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead. He has worked as a hospital consultant in child dental health and orthodontics, is recognised as a specialist orthodontist and lectured at the University of Malta. He has also completed courses in implantology and aesthetic dentistry and is a registered Invisalign, WIN and FirstFit practitioner.
Dr Miriam Sciberras qualified in Malta in 1990 with First Class Honours, spent a year in prosthetic dentistry at Guy's Hospital and completed an intensive implantology course in Sheffield. She works at the practice three mornings a week, focusing on prosthetics and dentures.
Dr Gabriel Sciberras qualified with a Master of Dental Surgery with Distinction in 2025 and trained for a year at Mater Dei Hospital. He is a certified veneer provider and Invisalign provider. Saviour Seychell, who qualified as a dental hygienist in 1992, joined the practice in 1995 and works with the implant and orthodontic specialists on gum health and care around implants.
Orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry and implants
Orthodontics is the headline service. The clinic offers consultations, metal braces, clear ceramic braces and WIN and Invisalign aligners for crowded or misaligned teeth, and treats adults as well as children, since the practice sees straightening as something for any age.
Aesthetic dentistry covers veneers, professional whitening with the Philips Zoom system and laser gum contouring, and the veneers are FirstFit designs. Implant dentistry covers full arch and partial arch work, in removable and fixed forms, and uses digital planning, smile design and guided surgery. Dental implants can replace a single tooth, several teeth or a whole upper or lower set.
No prices are published on the website, so ask for a quotation after your appointment.
Everyday and specialist dentistry
Restorative dentistry includes tooth coloured fillings, root canal treatment, crowns, bridges and dentures. Oral surgery covers wisdom tooth removal, surgical extractions, root end surgery, biopsies and gum surgery. Periodontics provides manual and ultrasonic cleaning, gum surgery and root surface debridement, while preventive dentistry offers fluoride varnish, fissure sealants, splints and minimally invasive care.
Paediatric dentistry covers pulpotomies, removable appliances and assessment of a child's development, and oral diagnosis relies on check-ups with 2D and 3D digital imaging. The practice uses an iTero Lumina intraoral scanner and a Planmeca radiograph unit.
