Porcelain vs. Composite Veneers

Composite veneers are applied directly to the teeth in a single visit. They're more affordable and require less tooth preparation, but they stain more easily and need replacing sooner.

Porcelain veneers are custom-made in a lab and bonded to your teeth over two visits. They look more natural, resist staining, and last much longer — making them the better long-term value despite the higher upfront cost.

What Are Lumineers?

Lumineers are ultra-thin porcelain veneers (0.2mm vs. 0.5mm for traditional porcelain). Their main advantage is minimal or no tooth preparation — your natural tooth structure stays intact. However, they may not work for severely discolored or misaligned teeth.

The "Hollywood Smile" Package

Many Dubai clinics offer Hollywood smile packages that include:

  • Full consultation and digital smile design
  • 8-20 porcelain or E-max veneers
  • Teeth whitening for remaining teeth
  • All follow-up appointments
  • Package prices typically range from AED 20,000 to AED 60,000, often with payment plans available.

    Dubai vs. Other Countries

    |---------|--------------------------|

    DubaiAED 2,000 – 4,000 ($545-$1,090)
    UKĀ£500 – Ā£1,000 ($630-$1,260)
    Turkey$250 – $450
    Thailand$350 – $500

    Dubai offers a strong middle ground — more affordable than the US/UK with higher regulatory standards than budget destinations.

    How to Choose the Right Veneers

  • Be realistic about your budget — composite veneers are fine for a trial run
  • Ask to see before/after photos of the dentist's actual patients
  • Request a digital smile preview (DSD) before committing
  • Understand the prep involved — some veneers require shaving down your teeth permanently
  • Check the lab — ask which dental lab makes the veneers (local vs. international)
  • Get a detailed written quote that includes all visits, the temporary set, and any adjustments
  • Maintenance Tips

  • Avoid biting hard foods directly with veneered teeth
  • Don't use teeth as tools (opening packages, etc.)
  • Maintain regular dental hygiene
  • Visit your dentist every 6 months
  • Avoid excessive coffee, tea, and red wine (especially with composite veneers)
