Smile gallery · 4 min read
The short answer
Dr. Khalid Saeed's before-and-after gallery covers porcelain veneers, upper-and-lower Hollywood smiles, upper-arch crowns, full-arch implant bridges and full smile rehabilitation. Some cases were treated at Creative Arts in Dubai, including Parshang's full smile rehabilitation and a case of worn, discoloured front teeth. Photos are shared with patient consent, and results vary from person to person.
Before-and-after photos are the quickest way to judge a dentist's taste, but they only tell part of the story. A good photo shows how tooth length, smile line and shade were handled; it does not show the gums under a veneer or how the bite works. This page explains each type of case and what is worth looking for.
The cases come from the work of Dr. Khalid Saeed at his main clinic, Celebrity Smile Center in Duhok, and at Creative Arts in Dubai, which he co-founded. Where a case page names the clinic, we say so here. The full photo sets are in the before-and-after gallery.
Quick facts
Parshang's case is the clearest example of Dr. Khalid's work in Dubai: a full smile rehabilitation at Creative Arts, documented in a video following the case from start to result, plus a separate video in which she describes the experience in her own words.
This kind of treatment is usually planned when several problems affect the visible teeth at once, so fixing a single tooth would not improve the smile as a whole. The full smile was designed first, the stages were carried out under a written plan, and the restorations were made at Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building.

The second case documented in Dubai involved front teeth with worn edges and changed colour. Whitening alone rarely solves this, because the problem is length and shape as well as shade.
The plan began by checking the bite to understand the cause of the worn, short teeth; wear with an unexplained cause can repeat on the veneers themselves. New length and shape were then designed and tried in before the veneers were made. It shows cosmetic work starting from function.
Most cases are porcelain veneers with different aims: a natural smile that does not look artificial, turning yellow, uneven teeth into a uniform smile, or a male smile with edges and shapes that suit male features.
In the natural celebrity smile case, the patient said in a later video that she had her smile done with Dr. Khalid about three years earlier and was still happy with it. In the male smile case, the smile line was designed to follow the curve of the lower lip. For veneer options if you live in the UAE, see veneers in Dubai at Creative Arts.
The table summarises the published cases, the treatment and what is useful to notice in the photos. Use it to pick the case closest to what you want before your consultation.
| Case | Treatment | What to notice |
|---|---|---|
| Parshang (Dubai) | Full smile rehabilitation | Case video and patient's own review |
| Worn front teeth (Dubai) | Veneers | Length and shape restored |
| Natural celebrity smile | Porcelain veneers | Patient's view about 3 years on |
| Male smile | Veneers | Smile line follows lower lip |
| Yellow to white | Veneers | Front and side views |
| Upper and lower Hollywood | Upper and lower veneers | Length balanced across both arches |
| Upper-arch restoration | Crowns and veneers | Natural lower teeth kept |
| Full-arch implants | Implants and fixed bridge | Two upper-jaw cases |
| Retractor views | Full smile makeover | Bite and gum margins |
| Veneers in profile | Veneers | Veneer thickness against the lips |
Some cases go beyond the front teeth. The upper-and-lower Hollywood smile shows veneers on both arches with balanced shape and length, alongside a full-face photo so you can judge the result in context.
The upper-arch restoration shows a different decision: treating only the visible upper teeth with crowns and veneers while keeping the natural lower teeth. In the two full-arch implant cases, an upper jaw with missing or failing teeth was treated with implants and then a complete fixed bridge. Improving a smile does not always mean veneers on every tooth.
Look at the side and close-up views, not only the front photo. The profile shots in the veneers-in-profile case, for example, reveal veneer thickness and how the teeth sit against the lips, which is what separates a natural smile from bulky teeth.
Check the gum margins in clinical photos, whether the tooth line follows the lower lip, and whether the shade suits the skin or is simply very white. Someone else's result is not a promise for yours, because teeth, gums and bite differ.
Alongside this site's gallery, Creative Arts publishes its own cases in the Creative Arts smile gallery in Dubai, and Dr. Khalid Saeed's profile at Creative Arts shows his role at the practice. If material matters to you, the E.max veneers in Dubai page explains the option most often chosen for front teeth.
If a case looks close to what you want, send a screenshot with your own smile photos to Creative Arts on WhatsApp +971 56 677 7537, or to the Duhok clinic on +964 750 799 3444 if you would rather be treated there. It helps the dentist understand your taste before the design stage.

Creative Arts Dental & Aesthetics · Jumeirah, Dubai
Alongside his clinic in Duhok, Dr. Khalid Saeed treats patients at Creative Arts Dental & Aesthetics in Jumeirah, which he co-founded, with Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building. The centre's official pages:
614 Jumeira St, Jumeirah 3, Umm Suqeim 1, Dubai · +971 4 342 4444 · daily 10:00–20:00 · Dr. Khalid DHA licence 06772519
Yes. The photos are published with the patients' consent, and some cases are backed by video, such as Parshang's, in which she talks about her experience, and the natural smile case, whose owner said she had it done about three years earlier. Even so, each result belongs to that patient alone, because teeth, gums, bite and home care differ from person to person.
Parshang was treated by Dr. Khalid Saeed at Creative Arts Dental & Aesthetics in Jumeirah 3, Umm Suqeim 1, Dubai. It was a full smile rehabilitation, designed first and then carried out in stages under a written plan, with the restorations made at Creative Art Dental Lab in the same building. Her case page shows both the treatment video and her own review video.
You can use a case as a reference for what you like, such as brightness, edge shape or length, but your smile will be designed for your own face. Dr. Khalid chooses shape and shade according to your facial features, lips and skin tone, and you try the design as a mock-up on your teeth before any preparation, so you see it on your own face first.
No. Most are porcelain veneers, but the gallery also includes an upper-arch restoration with crowns and veneers that kept the natural lower teeth, two upper-jaw implant cases with a fixed full bridge, and a full smile rehabilitation. The point is to show that the right solution depends on the case, and that whitening or orthodontics is sometimes the better choice.
They do not show gum health under the veneers, the strength of the bite, how much tooth preparation was needed, or how the smile will look years later. Ask about these points directly and have the preparation level, material and alternatives written into your plan. Follow-up photos taken years later, where available, tell you more than a fitting-day picture.
Yes. Veneers for Dr. Khalid's patients in Duhok are made at Creative Art Dental Lab in the Creative Arts building in Dubai: designed with Dr. Khalid, made in the Dubai lab and fitted in Duhok. That is why the working method and the style of smile look consistent across cases from both cities.
Send a front smile photo, a close-up of your teeth and a side view on WhatsApp, with a screenshot of the gallery case you liked. In Dubai use Creative Arts on +971 56 677 7537; for Duhok use +964 750 799 3444. An opinion based on photos is preliminary, and the final plan is written after examination and X-rays.
