Honoured and humbled to be featured in Muscat Daily following receiving a Special Mention recognition from the World Federation of Orthodontists (WFO) during the AAO/WFO Annual Meeting in Orlando, USA.
This recognition reflects a journey dedicated to cleft and craniofacial orthodontic care, research, education, and raising awareness about the importance of multidisciplinary treatment and early intervention for children born with cleft conditions.
I would like to sincerely thank my mentors, colleagues, patients, families, and everyone who supported me throughout this journey. Special pride goes to representing Oman internationally in this field.
Orthodontics is not only about smiles… it is about transforming lives.
