Health guides
Dental prices in Qatar are rarely published, which makes them hard to compare. Here is a full published list, with an explanation of what actually changes the figure.
Two clinics can quote wildly different figures for "a filling" and both be honest. The price depends on the material, the number of surfaces, whether the tooth needs any preparation first, and whether the problem turns out to be deeper than it looked.
What you can reasonably ask for is a published starting price and a clear explanation of what would move it. Below is the list we publish, in Qatari riyals.
A dental consultation at Brite starts from 50 QAR. If the dentist needs to see the whole jaw — for wisdom teeth, an abscess or orthodontic planning — a panoramic X-ray is taken on site rather than sending you elsewhere.
Scaling and polishing is 100 QAR. It removes hardened plaque that brushing cannot, and for most adults it is the single most cost-effective dental appointment of the year.
Gingivectomy — reshaping gum tissue, usually for gum health rather than appearance — is 150 QAR.
A filling is 200 QAR per tooth. A simple extraction starts from 250 QAR. Root canal treatment starts from 450 QAR.
Root canal is the treatment people most often delay on price, and it is usually the one where delay costs most: an untreated infected tooth tends to end in extraction, and replacing a tooth costs considerably more than saving it.
A PFM crown (porcelain fused to metal) is 450–500 QAR per tooth. A composite veneer is 100 QAR per tooth, and an EMAX veneer 600 QAR per tooth. Teeth whitening is 500 QAR.
Composite and EMAX are not competing versions of the same thing — composite is applied directly and is more easily repaired, EMAX is a thinner bonded ceramic. Which one suits your teeth is a clinical decision, and worth a consultation rather than a price comparison.
Orthodontic treatment — braces and aligners — is quoted per case rather than per item, because the plan depends on your scan. We cover that in a separate guide on braces and clear aligners in Qatar.
Anything involving surgery, sedation or a specialist referral sits outside a standard list as well. The honest version is: a list covers routine work, and routine work is most of dentistry.
Dental cover in Qatar is commonly a separate section of a policy, often with its own annual limit and a co-payment. Routine treatment — examination, cleaning, fillings — is covered more often than cosmetic work such as whitening and veneers, which many policies exclude entirely.
Bring your card to reception before treatment starts and ask for your coverage to be checked.
At Brite a filling is 200 QAR per tooth. Prices elsewhere in Doha vary and are often quoted only after the examination, so it is worth asking before you sit down.
Root canal treatment at Brite starts from 450 QAR. The final figure depends on the tooth — a molar has more canals than a front tooth and takes longer.
Often partly. Dental is usually a separate section of a policy with its own limit, and cosmetic work such as whitening and veneers is commonly excluded. We check your card at reception before treatment.
Yes. We are open Saturday to Thursday 08:00–23:00, and Friday 14:00–23:00, so evening appointments after work are usually available.
Yes, panoramic dental X-ray is done at the centre, so you are not sent elsewhere between appointments.
