A Hollywood Smile makeover combines digital smile design, custom veneers and whitening into one confident, natural-looking result — approved by you on screen before a single tooth is touched. Dr. Mona Adel, our implant and cosmetic dentistry lead with 16 years in practice, designs and fits every case at our partner Haya Dental Center in Mohandessin. Indicative all-in price from $2,000, confirmed after your online assessment.

Who this is for

This suits anyone wanting a more even, brighter smile — closing gaps, correcting shape or shade, or replacing old discoloured work — with healthy gums and no untreated decay. Send a close-up smile photo on WhatsApp; Dr. Adel reviews it and flags honestly if a cavity or gum issue needs treating first, before any cosmetic work begins.

What’s included in your CURE PASS price

Every step from design to final bonding is confirmed in writing before you travel.

  • Dentist fee. Dr. Adel’s consultation, the digital smile design session and the fitting itself.
  • Veneers. Your chosen material (porcelain or zirconia), custom-made to the approved design.
  • Whitening. A session for the surrounding natural teeth, included in most cases.
  • Accommodation. Four nights in a comfortable 4-star hotel, matched to the treatment schedule.
  • Transfers & coordinator. Every airport and clinic journey, plus an Arabic- and English-speaking coordinator throughout.

Before you travel: what to prepare

A few details help Dr. Adel prepare your digital smile design before you even land.

  • Close-up photos of your smile, front-on and from both sides, in natural light.
  • Photos of any existing crowns, veneers or discoloured teeth you’d like matched or replaced.
  • Whether you grind your teeth at night, which affects the material recommended.
  • Your passport details and preferred travel window.

You’ll see and approve your digital design before travelling, so there are no surprises once you’re in the chair.

Your day-by-day journey

  • Day 1. Arrival, hotel check-in, digital smile design (DSD) consultation — you approve a computer preview of your new smile before anything is prepared.
  • Day 2. Minimal tooth preparation and shade matching, with temporary veneers fitted the same day so you're never without a smile.
  • Day 3. Rest day while your permanent veneers are finished, with an optional whitening top-up for surrounding teeth.
  • Day 4. Permanent veneers bonded, a bite check, before/after photos, and the transfer to the airport.

Recovery timeline and when you can fly

There's little true "recovery" — most patients feel back to normal within 1-2 days, with mild sensitivity to hot or cold in the first week as the teeth settle. You can fly home the same day treatment finishes; there's no wound healing to wait for, only a short adjustment period for your bite.

Combining your smile makeover with other treatments

Because the trip is short and there’s little true downtime, many patients pair a Hollywood Smile with a general dental check-up, a filling, or gum treatment in the same visit, since you’re already at Haya Dental Center. Mention anything else on your mind on WhatsApp so Dr. Adel can quote it alongside your veneers, making it one coordinated visit rather than two separate trips to Egypt.

Risks and how we manage them

Veneer preparation removes a thin layer of enamel and is not reversible for porcelain veneers, so getting the design right before preparation matters — this is exactly what the DSD approval step is for. Other risks include temporary sensitivity, rare colour mismatch, or a veneer debonding under heavy bite force (avoid ice-biting or opening bottles with your teeth). These are managed through the digital mock-up, proven bonding protocols, and a guidance sheet on care once you're home.

How your treatment plan comes together

Nothing is booked until you have a written plan and a firm price in hand. Dr. Adel personally reviews your smile photos before anything is confirmed. Here is what actually happens, step by step.

  • Step 1 — Send your details. Photos, scans or a short description of your situation, sent on WhatsApp.
  • Step 2 — Clinical review. Your case is reviewed and you receive an honest first opinion, usually within a day or two.
  • Step 3 — Written plan and price. A specific plan for your Hollywood Smile, with a firm all-in price — no deposit needed to receive this.
  • Step 4 — Book your dates. Your coordinator lines up flights, hotel and the clinic schedule around you.
  • Step 5 — Treatment and recovery. Roughly 4 days in Egypt, coordinated from arrival to departure.
  • Step 6 — Stay in touch. Remote follow-up continues once you're home, for as long as you need it.

You can pause or stop at any step — nothing obligates you to travel until you choose to book.

Questions to ask any clinic before you book

  • Do I see and approve a digital smile design before any tooth is prepared?
  • Porcelain, zirconia or composite — and why is that the right material for my case?
  • Is a prep-free or minimal-prep option available for my teeth?
  • What's the guarantee period on the veneers, and what voids it?
  • Is whitening for the surrounding natural teeth included in the price?

If you'd like a plan and a firm price before deciding anything, that first review costs nothing and carries no obligation. See the Smile Makeover Getaway — 4 Days package, or read Hollywood Smile in Egypt: price, process & how long you stay. Send a smile photo on WhatsApp or request a written quote — or browse our full care-center network first. Either way, you keep control of the pace and the decision, from the first message onward.

Frequently asked questions

How many teeth are typically included in a Hollywood Smile? +

Most people choose 8 to 10 veneers across the visible upper teeth for a balanced smile line, though some prefer fewer, more targeted veneers. Dr. Adel recommends a count based on your smile and goals.

Is tooth preparation always needed for veneers? +

Not always — some cases suit prep-free or minimal-prep veneers, discussed at your digital smile design consultation. Most full transformations still need a thin layer of enamel removed for the most natural, durable result.

Will the veneers look fake? +

That's exactly what the digital smile design step prevents — you see and approve a realistic preview matched to your face shape and skin tone before any tooth is touched, so the result is bright but natural.

Can I eat and drink normally afterwards? +

Yes, once the permanent veneers are bonded — though it's wise to avoid biting ice, very hard foods or opening things with your teeth, the same care you'd take with natural teeth to avoid chips.

How long does the whole process take? +

The in-clinic journey fits comfortably into 4 days — design, preparation, temporaries and final fitting — matching our Smile Makeover Getaway package, with no return trip needed for veneers.

How is this different from teeth whitening alone? +

Whitening only brightens your existing enamel and can't change shape, gaps or alignment. Veneers reshape and re-cover the visible tooth surface, so they fix shape and spacing as well as colour — whitening is often included for the surrounding natural teeth.
