The parent with worn or stained front teeth
Years of coffee, tea or grinding leave short, darker edges. Whitening and bonding are checked first; veneers when shape must change too. See veneers for stained teeth.

Umm Suqeim households often bring two veneer questions at once: a parent who wants worn or stained teeth improved, and a teenager or young adult just out of braces. This page answers both.

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











Creative Arts Dental & Aesthetics is at 614 Jumeira St, Umm Suqeim 1 (Jumeirah 3), its only clinic, open daily 10:00–20:00. Veneers start from AED 1,250 per tooth, with the final price set by material and number of teeth.

Porcelain and E.max veneers are made in the lab, resist staining and typically last longer.

Umm Suqeim 1, 2 and 3 are family neighbourhoods of villas, schools and beach sports. The same four situations come up again and again.
Years of coffee, tea or grinding leave short, darker edges. Whitening and bonding are checked first; veneers when shape must change too. See veneers for stained teeth.
Teeth are straight but small, narrow or with small gaps. A few minimal-prep or composite veneers often finish the result; see veneers after braces.
Teeth and gums are still changing, so whitening (when old enough), bonding or orthodontics usually come first. Read the minimum age for veneers.
Veneers suit active people, but a knock to the mouth can chip them. Ask about a sports guard when you plan them; more below.
Neither is better for everyone. The choice depends on age, how much change is needed, budget over the years and how much maintenance you accept.
| Question | Composite veneers | Porcelain or E.max veneers |
|---|---|---|
| How they are made | Tooth-coloured resin shaped directly on the tooth | Ceramic designed and made by Creative Art Dental Lab, in the same building |
| Preparation | Usually little or none | Minimal, and none for some no-prep cases |
| Visits | Often one long visit per group of teeth, after design | Consultation, mock-up, preparation, fitting, review |
| Staining and wear | Picks up colour and loses polish faster | Glazed surface resists staining and wear |
| If one chips | Usually repaired in the chair | Usually the veneer is remade |
| Often suits | Young adults, small changes, a first step that keeps options open | Larger changes in shape and colour, a long-term result |
| Price | Per tooth, written in your plan | Per tooth, written in your plan |
Veneers start from AED 1,250 per tooth; your plan gives the figure for each material. Read composite vs porcelain veneers and composite veneers.
Specialist orthodontists and cosmetic dentists work in the same clinic, so the two plans are made together rather than one after the other by chance.
If veneers are likely, the orthodontist can leave teeth in a position that suits them, which often means fewer veneers or less preparation. See veneers vs Invisalign.
During orthodonticsGums can be swollen after braces. A short settling period with retainers worn as instructed comes before any design.
After removalWhitening is done before veneers so their shade matches the lighter natural teeth; see whitening after braces.
Before designThe same design and mock-up stages as any veneer case, then composite in the chair or ceramic from the lab.
Veneer visitsVeneers change tooth shape, so a removable retainer may need remaking to fit; a fixed retainer behind the teeth is checked.
After fittingThe same prices for every patient, whichever part of Dubai they live in. Whitening is listed because it often comes first.
| 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 |
| Teeth whitening | From AED 699 | per treatment |
Starting prices at Creative Arts, 614 Jumeira St, Jumeirah 3, Dubai. Your exact price, with the material and number of teeth, is written in your plan after examination.
The clinic is open every day from 10:00 to 20:00, so most families plan visits rather than squeeze them in.
Three daylight smile photos on WhatsApp. A dentist suggests whether composite, porcelain or something simpler is likely, and how many visits to expect.
A parent's veneer consultation can sit next to a child's check-up or an orthodontic review; see children's dentistry.
It is the longest appointment and is done under local anaesthetic. Morning slots from 10:00 suit many parents after the school run.
The lab is closed on Sunday, and try-ins go best when the ceramist can see your teeth. Sunday suits consultations and reviews.

Yes, with protection. Veneers are bonded strongly, but the thin ceramic edge can chip if it takes a direct knock or is ground against the lower teeth at night.
If a veneer chips, keep the piece and send a photo during opening hours. Composite is usually repaired in the chair; ceramic is usually remade.
Before and after cases are in the smile gallery; common questions are on ask about veneers. The main veneers page explains each material, and Hollywood smile in Umm Suqeim covers full-smile cases with crowns or implants. Clinic details: dentist in Umm Suqeim and contact.

Dr. Muhannad KazzazSpecialist OrthodontistComplex orthodontic treatmentThere is no single legal age, but dentists usually wait until the teeth and gums have finished maturing, often from about 18 and sometimes into the early twenties. Before that, orthodontics, composite bonding or, when old enough, supervised whitening usually achieve the goal without preparing enamel. For under-18s at the Umm Suqeim clinic, a parent or guardian takes part in every decision.
Usually yes, with the veneer plan agreed before the aligners finish. Straightening first often means fewer veneers and less preparation. At Creative Arts in Umm Suqeim 1 the specialist orthodontist and cosmetic dentist plan together, then teeth and gums settle with retainers before the veneers are designed.
The price per tooth depends on the material, and your written plan gives composite and ceramic figures side by side. Veneers at the clinic start from AED 1,250 per tooth. Composite usually needs polishing and replacement sooner, so compare the cost over the years, not only on the day.
Yes. Wait until the veneers are bonded and the bite is checked, then wear a well-fitting sports guard for padel, water sports or anything with a risk of a knock to the mouth. Ask the dentist which type suits your veneers; a custom-made guard usually fits most closely. If you grind at night, a night guard is advised as well.
Yes, ask for back-to-back appointments when you book by phone or WhatsApp. The clinic sees children for check-ups and preventive care, and is open every day from 10:00 to 20:00, so a parent's cosmetic consultation and a child's visit can usually be arranged on the same day.
Often, yes. Veneers change the shape of the front teeth, so a removable retainer made before them may no longer fit well. A new one is scanned after fitting. A fixed wire retainer behind the teeth can usually stay, and is checked so it does not interfere with the bonding.
