Likely treatments
What the dentist may suggest
Teeth WhiteningProfessional teeth whitening uses a peroxide gel, applied in the clinic or with custom home trays, to lighten the natural colour of teeth by several shades. Typically AED 700–AED 3,000 per treatment.
Teeth Cleaning (Scale & Polish)A professional scale and polish removes hardened plaque (tartar) and surface stains that brushing cannot shift, helping prevent gum disease and decay. Typically AED 200–AED 700 per visit.
VeneersVeneers are thin shells of porcelain or composite bonded to the front of teeth to change their colour, shape or size. Typically AED 800–AED 4,000 per tooth.Where in Dubai?
