Common questions about dentists in the UAE

How do I know a dentist in the UAE is licensed?

Every dentist in the UAE must be licensed by the health authority for their emirate: DHA in Dubai, DOH in Abu Dhabi, and MOHAP in Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. The dentists on this directory come from those public registers, and each profile shows the licence category (General Dentist, Specialist or Consultant) and the facility where they practise.

What is the difference between a general dentist, a specialist and a consultant?

A general dentist provides everyday care such as check-ups, cleanings, fillings, root canals and crowns. A specialist has postgraduate training in one field, such as orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics or paediatric dentistry. A consultant is a specialist with substantially more experience. For most needs, start with a general dentist, who can refer you if needed.

How much does a dental check-up cost in the UAE?

In Dubai, a check-up and consultation typically costs AED 150 to 400, and a check-up with cleaning AED 400 to 900, based on published clinic prices. Prices in Sharjah and the northern emirates are often 15 to 30 percent lower. These are estimates, so confirm with the clinic. Our cost guides give typical ranges for common treatments.

Does my health insurance cover dental treatment?

It depends on your plan. Minimum plans such as the Dubai Essential Benefits Plan do not include routine dental care. Many employer plans include basic dental, such as cleanings, fillings and root canals, within an annual limit of roughly AED 1,500 to 5,000, with a 10 to 30 percent co-pay. Cosmetic treatment, implants and adult orthodontics are usually excluded. Check your table of benefits and ask the clinic to confirm before treatment.

Can I find a dentist who speaks my language?

Usually yes. UAE dentists come from many countries, and clinics commonly have staff who speak Arabic, English, Hindi, Urdu, Malayalam, Tagalog, Russian, French, German and other languages. Dentist profiles show languages where the regulator publishes them, and you can filter by language when searching.

What should I do in a dental emergency?

For a knocked-out adult tooth, severe toothache or facial swelling, see a dentist the same day; many Dubai clinics open late and some operate 24 hours. For swelling spreading to the eye or neck, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding or a jaw injury, go to a hospital emergency department or call 998.
