Est. 2016 — Downtown Dubai
A single-suite cosmetic dentistry atelier in Dubai. Prosthodontist, orthodontist and ceramist work one case at a time — and you wear the proposed shape on your own face before anything becomes permanent.
Cosmetic dentistry went wrong the day it became a same-day product. A smile is a facial feature, not a set of ten identical white rectangles — it has to fit a lip line, a speech pattern, an age and a face. That takes appointments, photographs, an argument or two, and a willingness to start again.
Every cosmetic case begins with a trial smile you wear home. If the length is wrong, we redraw it. Enamel does not grow back, so the drawing happens first.
Aligners before veneers. Bonding before ceramic. We would rather lose the larger case than remove tooth structure that did not need removing.
Shade, translucency and surface texture are chosen with the person who will build the work, in daylight, with your face in the room — not emailed to a lab as a number.
Each of these begins with an assessment, and each of them can end with us telling you that you do not need it.
The plan before the porcelain. A photographic and digital study of your face, bite and speech that turns "I want nicer teeth" into a shape we can both look at before anything is touched.
Layered, not painted. Hand-layered feldspathic and lithium-disilicate veneers built by a ceramist who works with translucency the way nacre forms in a shell — in depth, not in one flat shade.
Planned in software, placed with a guide. Guided implant placement using a CBCT scan and a printed surgical guide, restored with a screw-retained ceramic crown that can be serviced years later.
Move the teeth before you dress them. Invisalign treatment supervised by an orthodontist, used both on its own and as the step that lets us place fewer, thinner veneers afterwards.
Shade, taken seriously. Supervised in-clinic and take-home whitening with custom trays, sensitivity management, and an honest conversation about what bleaching can and cannot change.
Additive, reversible, same-day. Freehand composite artistry for chipped edges, small gaps and worn incisors — usually with no drilling, and completed in a single visit.
The unglamorous half that makes the rest last. Examinations, hygiene therapy, white fillings and root canal treatment — because cosmetic work built on an unstable foundation does not survive.
The person who assesses you is the person who treats you, and they are here next year to answer for it.

Leila trained in Milan and spent six years restoring worn dentitions before opening NACRE. She still refuses to prepare a tooth before a patient has worn the trial smile home.

Adam plans every case backwards — the final crown is designed first, and the fixture position follows it. He teaches guided surgery two weekends a month.

DDS, Specialist Orthodontist
Sophie argues — usually successfully — that moving a tooth is kinder than shaving it. Around half of NACRE’s cosmetic cases now start in her chair.

Karim sees every new patient before a cosmetic plan is written. He is the reason a fair number of them leave with a hygiene appointment instead of veneers.

Half of this list exists to avoid guessing. The other half exists to avoid taking away more tooth than necessary.
Digital impressions instead of alginate trays. Faster, more accurate, and no gag reflex to negotiate.
Low-dose 3D imaging used for implant planning and root assessment. Taken only when the answer changes the plan.
Printed guides derived from the scan, so the implant goes exactly where it was planned in software.
A dedicated ceramist working on site — shade and texture decided with you present, not by courier.
Every restorative and cosmetic procedure carried out under loupes or a microscope. Margins you cannot see are margins you cannot control.
A standardised series at every stage, in the same light, so change is documented rather than described.
These are drawn schematics used to explain what each treatment actually changes. Real patient photography is added only with written consent and never retouched.
Clear aligners, 11 months
Alignment only. No tooth structure was removed and no ceramic was placed.
“I came in convinced I needed ten veneers. I left with a plan for aligners and two bonded edges, which cost a fraction of what I had budgeted. That conversation is why I stayed.”
Feedback shown here was written for this demonstration. A live deployment would surface verified reviews from a third-party platform rather than copy chosen by the clinic.
A printed trial smile is worn home, photographed, criticised and redrawn as many times as it takes. No preparation happens until you sign it off.
Every stage is priced before it starts. Nothing appears on an invoice that you have not already read and agreed to.
We do not run parallel chairs. Nobody is left numb in another room while your clinician finishes someone else.
Roughly a third of the people who arrive asking for veneers leave with a plan for aligners, bonding, or nothing at all.
It is the appointment that decides whether the rest of the treatment is right, so it is the one we refuse to shorten.
Coffee or mint tea, no clipboard. Your history is taken as a conversation, not a form.
Photography and a digital scan in a room designed for daylight rather than fluorescent tubes.
You see what we see — every image, at size, with the findings explained in plain language.
Options, costs and trade-offs written down. You leave with a document, not a pressure to decide.
Yes, for anything cosmetic or surgical. The consultation exists so that we can tell you honestly whether the treatment you want is the treatment you need — and occasionally to talk you out of it.
Valet parking at Tower 2. The metro entrance is a four-minute walk. Reception will meet you at the lift.
