Dr. Nahid Fatema

Dr. Nahid Fatema is an Oral and Dental Surgeon serving as a Consultant at Universal Medical College Hospital in Dhaka. She holds a BDS degree and has completed PGT in Oral Surgery. Her professional background also includes experience as a former principal at C.P. Mats and as an ex-lecturer at North South Medical and Dental Technology. Her dental practice covers oral health problems that may involve the teeth, gums, and surrounding tissues. Patients may visit a dental surgeon for tooth pain, cavities, gum swelling, damaged teeth, dental infections, or other problems affecting the mouth. Some dental conditions start with mild discomfort and become more troublesome when left untreated. An examination can help identify whether the problem needs routine dental treatment or surgical attention.

As a Consultant at Universal Medical College Hospital, Dr. Nahid Fatema applies her training in oral surgery to the assessment and management of dental and oral conditions. Oral surgical procedures may be considered for cases such as difficult tooth removal, impacted teeth, infections, or other conditions requiring a surgical approach. The exact treatment depends on the examination and dental findings. Patients may need an X-ray before certain procedures to understand the position of a tooth or the condition of surrounding structures. Previous dental treatment and ongoing medicines can also be relevant before surgery. Good oral hygiene remains important even after treatment, as brushing, cleaning between teeth, and regular dental checks can reduce the chance of future problems. A toothache may seem like a small issue at first, but waiting too long can make a simple problem harder to manage.
