Is the tooth damaged underneath?
Sometimes there is decay or a crack. X-rays give clues, but the full picture is clear once the crown is off, and any change to the plan is explained.

Many people in Deira, Bur Dubai, Karama and Al Mankhool have lived in Dubai for years, and their teeth carry that history: a crown on a front tooth, a bridge, large silver fillings, perhaps veneers fitted long ago. Over time gums recede and show a dark edge at old metal-ceramic crowns, silver fillings darken and crack, and old veneers stain along the edges.
A Hollywood smile on teeth like these is more than new veneers. Some restorations can stay, some need replacing and some hide decay, so the first visit at Creative Arts includes X-rays and a tooth-by-tooth check, and the written plan lists every old restoration and what would replace it.
Creative Arts has one clinic, in Jumeirah 3, and no branch in Deira or Bur Dubai. Read how porcelain veneers and a Hollywood smile are planned.
What patients from these areas most often bring to the first visit.
| What you have now | What often happens to it | What can replace it | Read more |
|---|---|---|---|
| Metal-ceramic crown on a front tooth | A grey line shows at the gum as it recedes; the crown looks opaque next to natural teeth | An all-ceramic crown (E.max or layered zirconia) matched to the neighbouring teeth or new veneers | Dental crowns |
| Large silver (amalgam) filling | Darkens the tooth; edges crack and the tooth can split | A white filling when it is small; a crown when much of the tooth is missing | White vs silver fillings |
| Veneers fitted years ago | Edges stain or chip, or the margin shows at the gum | New veneers, after the tooth underneath is checked | Veneer replacement |
| An old bridge | Decay under a support tooth, trapped food, or a loose bridge | A new bridge, or implants if the support teeth cannot be saved | Implants vs bridges |
| A removable denture | Moves when eating and presses on the gums | An implant-supported denture, or a fixed All-on-4 or All-on-6 bridge when the bone allows | Implant-supported dentures |
Not every old restoration needs replacing; a sound crown you are happy with can stay.

When some teeth need crowns and others only veneers, the ceramic differs in thickness and the tooth underneath shows through differently. Made separately, they can end up in slightly different shades.
At Creative Arts they are planned as one design, tried as one trial smile and made together by Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building, where the ceramist compares shades in person. See matching veneers, crowns and implants.
Want lighter natural teeth? Whiten first: crowns and veneers do not whiten.
The same starting prices apply in every Dubai area; a Hollywood smile is calculated from the per-tooth price.
| Treatment | Price | Per |
|---|---|---|
| Veneers | From AED 1,250 | per tooth |
| 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 |
| Dental implant | From AED 4,000 | per implant |
| Teeth whitening | From AED 699 | per treatment |

Each extra step is listed before you agree.
A typical order; the number of visits depends on what the X-rays show.
Every crown, filling and veneer is checked; a 3D CBCT scan is added if an implant is considered.
Visit 1Decay, gum problems or root canal treatment come first, so the new ceramic is placed on healthy teeth.
If neededThe new smile is designed and tried in the mouth before any old crown comes off.
Next visitOld crowns or veneers are removed under local anaesthetic and the teeth scanned. You leave with temporaries while the lab works, typically 3–5 working days.
PreparationCrowns and veneers are tried in, shade-checked and fitted together, then the bite and gums are reviewed.
Final visitsQuestions asked most at the first visit.
Sometimes there is decay or a crack. X-rays give clues, but the full picture is clear once the crown is off, and any change to the plan is explained.
No. Temporaries are fitted the same day the old crowns or veneers are removed and worn until the ceramic is ready.
Removal and preparation are done under local anaesthetic. Some sensitivity for a few days is common and usually eased with over-the-counter pain relief.
The smile gallery shows real cases, and answers to veneer questions cover shade, shape and how long veneers last.
Dr. Duaa Emran, Cosmetic Dentist, and Dr. Somar Dahdal focus on veneers and smile design. Dr. Khalid Saeed and Dr. Kinan Bonni plan cosmetic, implant and full mouth rehabilitation cases, and Dr. Marina Antoniuk works on crowns, restorative and root canal treatment.

No. Creative Arts has one clinic, at 614 Jumeira St, Jumeirah 3, Umm Suqeim 1, open daily 10:00–20:00. Patients from Deira, Bur Dubai, Karama and Al Mankhool are treated there, and the crowns and veneers are made by Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building.
Usually, yes. The dark line is often the metal edge of a metal-ceramic crown showing as the gum recedes. An all-ceramic crown such as E.max or layered zirconia avoids it. X-rays check the tooth first, because decay or an old root filling may need treatment before the new crown.
Yes. Your existing crowns are assessed with the rest of your teeth. Sound crowns that match the new shade can stay; others are replaced so they match the new veneers. Everything is designed and tried as one trial smile before any work starts.
Yes. Veneers start from AED 1,250 per tooth, a Hollywood smile from AED 12,500 for 10 upper veneers or AED 25,000 for 20, and implants from AED 4,000 per implant, whichever area you live in. Crowns and any treatment needed under old restorations are priced in your written plan.
If the teeth under the old crowns are healthy, it is often similar to veneers alone: assessment, trial smile, preparation, fitting after typically 3–5 working days of lab time, and a review. Decay, root canal treatment or gum treatment add visits, and the plan tells you how many before you start.
It depends on the support teeth. If they are still healthy, a new bridge may be simpler. If they are decayed or cracked, implants avoid relying on them. A 3D CBCT scan shows whether there is enough bone, and your plan sets out the options.
Yes. Temporary crowns or veneers are fitted on the day the old ones are removed and worn until the ceramic is ready, typically 3–5 working days. Avoid very hard or sticky food on them until the fitting.
