Common questions from patients in Jumeirah, Al Barsha, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai and across Dubai considering cosmetic dental treatments at Harmony Medical Center.
How much does cosmetic dentistry cost in Jumeirah Dubai?
Cosmetic dentistry costs in Jumeirah vary by treatment. Teeth whitening starts from AED 999. Composite bonding starts from AED 600 per tooth. Porcelain veneers start from AED 1,800 per tooth. Hollywood smile packages vary depending on the number of teeth and treatments involved. A full cost plan is provided at your free consultation with no obligation. Harmony offers 0% interest payment plans via Tabby and Tamara and accepts Daman, Thiqa and ADNIC insurance.
Are veneers permanent?
Porcelain veneers are a long-term cosmetic solution and typically last 10 to 20 years with proper care. They are not reversible because a small amount of enamel is removed before placement. Composite veneers are less permanent and can be repaired or replaced more easily. Your dentist will explain the differences during your consultation so you can make the right choice for your situation.
What is a Hollywood smile and how much does it cost in Dubai?
A Hollywood smile is a complete smile transformation typically involving a full set of porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, gum contouring and bite adjustments to create a symmetrical, bright and perfectly proportioned smile. In Dubai, Hollywood smile packages at Harmony Medical Center Jumeirah are tailored to each patient and priced based on the number of teeth treated and the procedures involved.

Is cosmetic dentistry painful?
Most cosmetic dental procedures are performed under local anaesthesia and are comfortable throughout. Veneer preparation involves minor enamel reduction, which is done painlessly with anaesthesia. Teeth whitening is non-invasive and causes no pain, though some patients experience temporary sensitivity. Composite bonding requires no drilling in most cases. Sedation options are available for patients with dental anxiety.
What is the difference between porcelain veneers and composite veneers?
Porcelain veneers are fabricated in a dental laboratory from ceramic material, offering superior aesthetics, durability and stain resistance, with a lifespan of 10 to 20 years. Composite veneers are applied chairside in a single appointment using tooth-coloured resin and require no laboratory, making them faster and less expensive. Composite veneers last 5 to 7 years and can be repaired easily. Your cosmetic dentist will recommend the right option based on your goals, budget and dental condition.
How long does a smile makeover take?
The timeline depends on the treatments involved. A single-visit teeth whitening takes approximately 60 minutes. Composite bonding is completed in one appointment of 1 to 2 hours. Porcelain veneers require 2 to 3 appointments over 2 to 3 weeks. A full Hollywood smile makeover including veneers, whitening and gum work typically takes 3 to 6 weeks from consultation to final reveal. Your dentist will outline a precise timeline at your consultation.
Can cosmetic dentistry fix crooked teeth without braces?
Yes. Mild to moderate crowding and spacing can be corrected aesthetically with porcelain veneers or composite bonding, creating the appearance of straighter teeth without orthodontic treatment. For significant misalignment, Invisalign clear aligners may be recommended before cosmetic work to achieve the best functional and aesthetic result. Your dentist will advise the most appropriate approach during your assessment.
Does Harmony offer cosmetic dentistry for teeth whitening resistant stains?
Yes. Stains caused by tetracycline antibiotics, fluorosis or intrinsic discolouration deep within the tooth do not respond to standard whitening. In these cases, porcelain veneers or composite veneers are the most effective solution, as they cover the tooth surface entirely and create a uniformly bright, natural-looking result. Your dentist will assess the type and depth of staining at your consultation.
What is digital smile design and how does it work?
Digital Smile Design is a planning technology that uses photographs and measurements of your face, lips and teeth to design your ideal smile proportionally on screen. The design is mapped against your facial features, including lip line, midline symmetry and golden ratio proportions. You see a digital preview of your future smile before any treatment begins and can request adjustments. The approved design then guides the dentist during treatment for a predictable, personalised result.
