Dental treatment in Beirut while visiting Lebanon.
Crowns, veneers, whitening, fillings, and root canals all fit inside a 2-3 week visit when the first appointment is booked before you land. Lumident plans treatment around your travel dates, confirms costs upfront, and builds follow-up into the plan before you leave.
What dental work fits in a 2-3 week visit?
Most restorative and cosmetic treatment fits comfortably. The honest exceptions: implants heal in stages and need two trips, and braces need a follow-up plan after you leave. Here is how the common treatments map to a visit:
| Treatment | Visits | Typical window |
|---|---|---|
| Checkup and cleaning | 1 visit | Any single day |
| Teeth whitening (in-office) | 1 visit | About 90 minutes |
| Fillings | 1-2 visits | Within one week |
| Root canal | 1-2 visits | Within one week |
| Crown or bridge | 2 visits | 10-14 days |
| Veneers | 2-3 visits | About 2 weeks |
| Dental implant | Staged | 2 trips, 3-6 months apart |
| Braces or aligners | Start + plan | Begins now, follow-up planned |
How do I plan treatment before I arrive?
The difference between a relaxed treatment visit and a rushed one is whether the plan exists before the flight. Three steps:
Step 1
Before you fly
Send photos, recent X-rays, or an existing treatment plan by WhatsApp. The department confirms what fits your dates and reserves the visits.
Step 2
First days in Beirut
Your first appointment happens in the first two or three days: examination, records, and a fixed, itemized quote. Starting early is what makes two-visit treatments comfortable.
Step 3
Before you leave
Final fittings are scheduled with margin before your departure date, and follow-up is agreed: WhatsApp review, or coordination with a dentist where you live.
What cannot be rushed?
Implants need 3 to 6 months of healing between placement and the final crown. That is biology, not scheduling, and any clinic promising a same-trip permanent implant crown is cutting a corner. At Lumident the implant is placed on one visit to Lebanon and the crown fitted on the next, with the timeline agreed upfront. Orthodontics starts any time, but needs either periodic visits or a coordinated follow-up plan where you live.
Questions patients visiting from abroad ask
Short answers first; the full plan comes from a WhatsApp conversation with the department.
Can I get a treatment plan before I arrive in Lebanon?
Yes. Send recent photos, X-rays, or an existing treatment plan by WhatsApp and the relevant department will confirm what is realistic in your window and reserve the visits before you fly.
What dental work fits in a 2 to 3 week visit?
Cleanings, whitening, fillings, crowns, bridges, veneers, and root canals all fit comfortably in two to three weeks. Implants need two trips, and braces need a local follow-up plan. Both are still possible with honest scheduling.
What happens if I need follow-up after I leave?
Follow-up is planned into the treatment before it starts: review by WhatsApp with photos where appropriate, and coordination with a dentist in your country of residence when hands-on follow-up is needed.
Do you often treat patients visiting from abroad?
Yes. Scheduling treatment around summer and holiday visits is routine at Lumident, and all three departments plan around fixed departure dates.
How do I pay?
The full cost is confirmed with you before treatment begins, with nothing open-ended. For longer treatments, payment can be staged across visits.
