There is no fixed price for a Hollywood smile in Lebanon, and Lebanese rules do not allow clinics to publish fees. Your cost depends on how many veneers you need, the porcelain chosen, any preparatory work such as whitening or gum contouring, and the dental lab. Send a photo on WhatsApp and Dr. Rita replies personally with your options and a preliminary estimate.

At Lebanon Dental Studio at C.Metric Dbayeh, Dr. Rita Kanbar specialises in aesthetic and prosthetic dentistry, including full Hollywood smile makeovers. Here is what you need to know about pricing in 2026.
What Determines the Cost of a Hollywood Smile?
There is no single price for a Hollywood smile because every case is different. The main factors that affect cost include the number of veneers required (typically 10 to 20 teeth for a full smile), the type of material chosen, whether preparatory treatments such as whitening or gum contouring are needed, and the complexity of your bite alignment.
Veneer Materials and What Drives the Cost
Lebanon offers significantly lower prices than Western Europe or the Gulf while maintaining the same quality of materials imported from Germany, Japan, and the United States.
E.max (lithium disilicate): The gold standard for anterior veneers. Excellent translucency that mimics natural enamel. Ideal for front teeth where aesthetics matter most.
Zirconia: Stronger than E.max and better suited for patients who grind their teeth or need coverage on posterior teeth. Modern multilayer zirconia now offers good aesthetics as well. Read our comparison of zirconia vs E.max for more detail.
Composite bonding: Used for small repairs such as a chipped edge or a minor gap. It is not recommended for a full Hollywood smile because it stains and wears much faster than porcelain.
Why Lebanon Is a Top Destination for Smile Makeovers
Patients from the UK, Canada, Australia, France, and the Gulf regularly travel to Lebanon specifically for dental work. The combination of highly trained specialists, international-grade materials, and treatment costs well below Western countries makes it one of the best destinations for cosmetic dentistry in the Middle East.
At Lebanon Dental Studio, Dr. Rita Kanbar holds an MSc in Aesthetic and Prosthetic Dentistry and has planned many smile makeovers (you can see real cases in our before and after gallery). Every case begins with a photo-based smile planning consultation, where Dr. Rita walks you through shape, shade and proportions before any work begins.
What Is Included in Your Hollywood Smile Treatment?
A typical Hollywood smile treatment at our clinic at C.Metric Dbayeh includes an initial consultation and smile planning, tooth preparation (minimal prep or no-prep depending on your case), temporary veneers while the lab fabricates your final set, fitting and bonding of the permanent veneers, and a follow-up appointment to check your bite and comfort.
Most Hollywood smile treatments are completed within two to three visits over one to two weeks, making it feasible for diaspora patients visiting Lebanon on holiday.
Lebanon vs International: How Prices Compare
One of the main reasons patients travel to Lebanon for a Hollywood smile is the dramatic cost difference. Here is how Lebanon compares to other popular destinations for a full set of 20 porcelain veneers.
| Country | Relative Cost for 20 Veneers | Savings vs Lebanon |
|---|---|---|
| Lebanon | Reference point | Not applicable |
| United Kingdom | Substantially more | Significant savings |
| United States | Among the highest | Greatest savings |
| UAE / Gulf | Noticeably more | Meaningful savings |
| Turkey | Comparable to Lebanon | Comparable |
Lebanon stands out not only for price but for quality. Many Lebanese cosmetic dentists, including Dr. Rita Kanbar, hold advanced postgraduate degrees in aesthetic dentistry and use the same German, Japanese, and American materials found in top European clinics.
What Affects Your Hollywood Smile Cost
Beyond the choice of material, several factors will influence your final treatment cost:
Number of veneers: A full smile makeover typically covers 10 to 20 teeth. Some patients only need the upper arch (8 to 10 teeth) for a noticeable transformation, which significantly reduces cost.
Preparatory treatments: If your teeth require whitening, gum contouring, or minor orthodontic alignment before veneers can be placed, these add to the overall investment. Your dentist will outline these during the smile planning consultation.
Prep vs no-prep veneers: Traditional veneers involve removing a thin layer of enamel. No-prep or minimal-prep veneers (such as Lumineers) preserve more tooth structure but are not suitable for every case. The technique chosen affects both cost and outcome.
Lab quality: The dental laboratory that fabricates your veneers plays a major role. At Lebanon Dental Studio, we work with premium labs that use CAD/CAM technology and high-end ceramics to ensure a natural, long-lasting result.
Complexity of your bite: Patients with deep bites, crossbites, or significant misalignment may need additional planning and adjustment, which can affect the total cost.
Real Results and the One-Day Question
Real case treated by Dr. Rita Kanbar. This patient’s smile was restored with ceramic crowns; porcelain veneers reshape a smile in the same way when less coverage is needed. More cases in the before and after gallery.
Can a Hollywood smile be done in one day?
Not with porcelain. E.max veneers are made by hand in a dental lab after your teeth are prepared, so a porcelain Hollywood smile takes 2 to 3 visits over 1 to 2 weeks. A one-day offer usually means composite resin applied in a single sitting, which stains and wears much faster, or crowns that remove more tooth than veneers. For patients flying in, the 1 to 2 week schedule fits into a single trip; the treatment-from-abroad guide shows how.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hollywood Smile Costs
Can I get a Hollywood smile quote before visiting Lebanon?
Yes. Send photos of your teeth via WhatsApp and Dr. Rita will provide a preliminary estimate. A final price is confirmed after an in-person examination and smile planning.
Do you offer payment plans?
We can discuss flexible payment arrangements during your consultation. Many diaspora patients split treatment across two visits to Lebanon, which naturally spreads the cost.
How long do veneers last?
E.max and zirconia veneers typically last 15 to 20 years with proper care. Composite veneers last 5 to 8 years. Regular check-ups and avoiding habits like nail biting or ice chewing extend their lifespan.
Is it worth travelling to Lebanon for a Hollywood smile?
For most international patients, the savings easily cover the cost of flights and accommodation. Because the same treatment typically costs substantially more in the UK or US than in Lebanon, the difference often more than offsets travel expenses.
