The same family, still in the same rooms.
Chaptini Smile Clinic is a family practice that has been looking after the same streets, and often the same families, since 1996.
Dr. Edmond A. Chaptini
Founder
The clinic was opened by Dr. Edmond A. Chaptini. The rooms, the records and the way patients are received still follow the practice he built: unhurried appointments, a written plan before treatment starts, and a dentist who knows the family history.
Kept open, then grown
When the clinic lost its founder, Dr. Alexandra chose to keep it open. She still leads the practice and still takes her own list. Her children, Dr. Amin and Dr. Nour, now practise beside her — orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry under the same roof as the family dentistry patients grew up with.
That is why a referral here usually means walking down the corridor, not starting again with a stranger. Grandparents, parents and children are often treated on the same afternoon, from the same set of records.

Dr. Nour Chaptini
Cosmetic Dentist

- Digital smile design and wearable mock-ups
Mme. Sylva Tannous
Clinical Assistant
Sylva runs the clinical side of every appointment — preparation, assistance at the chair, sterilisation and aftercare instructions. For most patients she is the first face they see and the one they remember.
- Chairside assistance across all treatments
- Sterilisation and clinical protocol
- Patient preparation and aftercare
Jounieh and Tripoli
The original clinic is in Touma Center, Jounieh. A second clinic in City Complex, Tripoli, means patients in the north do not have to travel to Keserwan for specialist work. Both rooms run to the same protocol.
