Questions
Before youdecide.
01Can I get a plan and a quote before I book flights?
Yes. Send photos of your teeth, or a recent dental X-ray if you have one, on WhatsApp or through the booking form. Our team comes back with the recommended treatment, the likely number of visits and an estimate, before you commit to travel.
02How long do I need to stay in Beirut?
It depends on the treatment. Porcelain veneers typically take 5 to 7 days across two visits. Composite bonding and whitening can be done in a single day. Dental implants usually take two trips: a short visit to place the implant, and a second visit 3 to 6 months later for the final crown, once healing is complete.
03Can my treatment be planned around my travel dates?
Yes. Once your plan is ready, your visits are scheduled to fit the time you have in Beirut. Send us your dates on WhatsApp and we work out the timing with you.
04What if something needs adjusting after I fly home?
Porcelain veneers and implants include a follow-up window in the treatment plan. If a question comes up once you are home, you can reach the clinic directly on WhatsApp or by email, and we advise you on the next step.
05Is the treatment the same as for patients who live in Beirut?
Yes. The same digital workflow applies to every Mineers patient: 3D scanning, digital smile design, guided implant surgery where it is needed, and strict sterilisation, in our clinic in Achrafieh.
