Dental services in the United Arab Emirates

Updated 1 November 2026

Dental treatment in the United Arab Emirates is priced per item or per visit. In the Dubai clinics we looked at, a filling costs from about AED 150 to AED 800 and a routine cleaning from about AED 200 to AED 650. For a figure for your own tooth, describe the problem on BlaBlaPrice and compare offers from local clinics.

Licences: who checks the clinic

Every dentist working in the UAE must be licensed by the health authority of the emirate where they work. The licensing body is DHA in Dubai, DOH in Abu Dhabi, or MOHAP, depending on the emirate. Ask which authority the clinic is registered with before you book. Licence fees are paid through each authority's portal, so they do not appear in a clinic's price list.

When to book: the mild season

Summer is very hot from May to September, so many people in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and Al Ain plan non-urgent work for the mild months from November to March. November 2026 is the start of that period. Pain does not wait for the weather, so a tooth that hurts should be seen as soon as possible.

How dental work is quoted

Prices are per item or per visit, and they often leave parts of the job out. A canal treatment is quoted without the filling that follows, which is paid separately. A deep cleaning is priced per quadrant from AED 400 each, so a full-mouth deep clean adds up across four quadrants. Some clinics offer interest-free payment plans, so ask whether the figure you are given is the total.

What to put in your request

Name the treatment, the tooth or teeth involved and whether it hurts, and say whether you prefer a composite, ceramic or metal material. Add the patient's age if it is a child, and your area in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman or Al Ain. Say whether you need the work this week or can wait for the mild season, and give a budget in AED if you have one, so clinics can suggest a realistic option. A photo can be added to the request.

Free for buyers: describe what you need in your own words in the chat on BlaBlaPrice. The AI asks for any missing details, looks through clinics' websites and price lists in the UAE, and shows the prices and businesses it finds. Clinics registered on BlaBlaPrice receive your request and reply in the chat with their own offer, terms and availability. Your contact details stay hidden until you decide to share them, so no clinic calls you without your choice. You can also send the request link to clinics you already know.
