Brides, grooms and their families
A fixed date drives everything. The design and mock-up are done early, so the final fitting is not squeezed into the last week. See a smile before a wedding.

A Hollywood smile at our Jumeirah 3 clinic is planned around three decisions: how white, how many teeth, and how much time you have before the date that matters. Here is how each one is made.
Have a date in mind? Send it with your smile photos on WhatsApp +971 56 677 7537.

Designed in the clinic and made by hand in Creative Art Dental Lab, in the same building in Jumeirah, Dubai.











At Creative Arts Dental & Aesthetics, 614 Jumeira St, Jumeirah 3, a Hollywood smile is calculated from the veneer price of AED 1,250 per tooth: 10 upper veneers from AED 12,500 and 20 upper and lower from AED 25,000. A straightforward case often takes about two weeks from preparation to fitting, but start at least six to eight weeks before a wedding so design, any gum or filling work and a settling period all fit.

The reasons differ, and they change the plan. These are the requests heard most often at the Jumeirah 3 clinic.

When whitening keeps fading, or cannot reach the colour wanted, ceramic gives a fixed shade. Whitening first is still worth trying if colour is the only concern.
Different shades and edges across the front teeth are brought into one design; some teeth may need crowns rather than veneers.
Many Jumeirah patients want people to notice the smile, not the veneers. That shapes the shade and edge choices below; see a natural Hollywood smile.
Shade is the decision patients change their mind about most. It is tested in the mock-up and in photographs before the ceramic is made.
| Shade direction | How it looks | Often chosen by | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Natural light shade | Clearly brighter than before, with some warmth at the gum and translucency at the edges | Patients who want the change to look like their own teeth | Can feel too subtle if you expected a dramatic change |
| Bright, with natural detail | Very light, but layered so the edges and surface still catch light like enamel | Most Hollywood smile patients | Needs careful layering; flat ceramic at this shade can look opaque |
| Bleach shades (very white) | The brightest end of the shade guide | Patients who want an unmistakably white smile | Can look artificial against skin tone, lips and lower teeth left natural |
Shade names vary between guides. Read about veneer shades and how white teeth can get.
It depends on how many teeth show when you smile widely, and whether your lower teeth show when you talk.
| Option | When it fits | Starting price |
|---|---|---|
| 8 upper teeth | A narrower smile that shows little beyond the first premolars | 8 × from AED 1,250 per tooth |
| 10 upper teeth | The most common choice: the teeth that show in a broad smile | From AED 12,500 |
| 20 teeth, upper and lower | Lower teeth show when you speak, or are worn or discoloured too | From AED 25,000 |
| Upper veneers, lower whitening | Lower teeth are healthy and only need to match in colour | 10 upper from AED 12,500; whitening from AED 699 |
A tooth that is heavily filled or root-treated may need a crown; those are priced in your written plan. See crowns or veneers for a Hollywood smile and Hollywood smile cost.
Calculated from the per-tooth veneer price, the same for every patient. The material for each tooth and any work needed first set the final figure in your plan.
| Treatment | Price | Per |
|---|---|---|
| Hollywood smile, 10 upper veneers (example) | From AED 12,500 | 10 teeth × AED 1,250 |
| Hollywood smile, 20 veneers upper and lower (example) | From AED 25,000 | 20 teeth × AED 1,250 |
| Veneers | From AED 1,250 | per tooth |
| Teeth whitening | From AED 699 | per treatment |

A working timeline for a straightforward case. Gum treatment, fillings or root canal work beforehand move every step later.
Send smile photos and the date. The dentist can tell you early if the time is too short for what you want.
8+ weeks beforeExamination, scan and a digital design, then a mock-up you can photograph and show your family before deciding.
6–8 weeks beforeGum care, replacing leaking fillings or whitening lower teeth. Gums should be calm before preparation.
4–6 weeks beforeUnder local anaesthetic, teeth are prepared only as the design needs, and temporaries are fitted.
3–4 weeks beforeThe ceramic is made over typically 3–5 working days (the lab is closed on Sunday), tried in, then bonded and the bite adjusted.
2–3 weeks beforeA review checks the gums and bite and leaves time for any small adjustment before photographs. Follow Hollywood smile aftercare.
Final week free
E.max (lithium disilicate) is strong and versatile and suits most Hollywood smiles. Feldspathic porcelain is layered by hand and is chosen when maximum natural translucency matters. Both are made by Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building; see E.max veneers.
Composite can be built directly on the teeth with little or no preparation and is easier to repair, but it stains and chips more readily and is usually replaced sooner. Read a composite Hollywood smile.
Not every tooth must be filed. Where teeth are small or already well positioned, some veneers need very little preparation; see a Hollywood smile without filing. The examination decides tooth by tooth.
See finished cases in the smile gallery and the questions patients send most on ask about veneers. The main Hollywood smile page covers the treatment in full. Only a few front teeth to change? See veneers in Jumeirah. Hours and directions are on the Jumeirah clinic page and contact page.
Dr. Duaa Emran, Cosmetic Dentist, focuses on veneers, smile design and Hollywood smiles. Dr. Kinan Bonni, Dr. Khalid Saeed and Dr. Somar Dahdal also plan full-smile cases, working with the ceramist from design to try-in.
Allow at least six to eight weeks for a straightforward case at the Jumeirah 3 clinic. That covers design, mock-up, preparation, typically 3–5 working days of lab time, fitting and a free final week for adjustments. If gums, fillings or a root canal need treatment first, start earlier; the dentist will say at the consultation whether your date is realistic.
Yes, the choice is yours. The dentist will show how a bleach shade looks in the mock-up against your skin, lips and any teeth left natural, because very white ceramic can look artificial in some faces. Many patients settle on a bright shade with natural layering. Ceramic colour cannot be changed later without remaking the veneers.
Only if your lower teeth show when you speak or are worn or discoloured. Many patients have 10 upper veneers, from AED 12,500, and whiten the lower teeth to match. If the lower teeth are visible and uneven, 20 veneers, from AED 25,000, give a consistent result. Smile photographs make the decision clear.
Often, yes. Composite is built directly on the teeth, usually with little or no preparation, and chips can be repaired in the chair. It stains and wears faster than ceramic, needs polishing and is typically replaced sooner. Your written plan prices both so you can compare cost over the years, not only today.
Old crowns rarely match a new shade, because ceramic does not whiten. Crowns in the visible smile are usually replaced as part of the design so that every tooth is made together by the same lab. Crowns at the back that do not show can often stay. The examination decides each one.
Yes, once the veneers are bonded. Avoid biting very hard things such as nuts or ice with the front teeth, and take care with temporaries, which are weaker. You can plan the preparation visit around fasting; many scholars hold that a local anaesthetic injection does not break the fast. Our guide to dental treatment in Ramadan explains more.
