Cosmetic dentistry at Pearl Roots Dental Clinic in Ngong, Nairobi is for anyone who wants a smile they feel confident showing, whether that means fixing a chipped front tooth, closing a small gap or covering stubborn discolouration. We offer composite bonding and masking, veneers and crowns, delivered with premium care at a price that stays affordable. Every smile makeover starts with a free, no-pressure consultation.
Treatments we offer
Composite bonding and masking
Composite bonding uses a tooth-coloured resin that we shape directly onto your tooth and then polish. It is a conservative way to repair small chips, smooth uneven edges or close minor gaps. Masking uses the same kind of material to cover dark spots or discolouration that whitening alone cannot lift. Because little or no natural tooth needs to be removed, bonding is often a good first step for people who want a noticeable change without a major commitment.
Veneers
Veneers are thin coverings fitted over the front surface of a tooth to change its colour, shape or length. They suit people who want a more even, consistent look across the teeth that show when they smile. We will talk you through whether veneers or bonding is the better fit for your teeth, your goals and your budget. If you are weighing the two, our guide on veneers vs composite bonding explains the differences in plain English.
Crowns
A crown is a cap that covers the whole visible part of a tooth. In cosmetic work, crowns can rebuild a tooth that is heavily worn, badly broken or misshapen, restoring both its appearance and its strength. A crown is often the right answer when a tooth needs more support than bonding or a veneer can give.
Silver or gold crowns
Some patients prefer silver or gold crowns, whether for a back tooth that does heavy chewing work or simply as a personal style choice. We are happy to discuss these options alongside tooth-coloured crowns so you can choose what suits you.

What to expect
Our process is the same four clear steps for every cosmetic patient:
- Consultation. We listen to what you would like to change about your smile and examine your teeth and gums. Healthy foundations come first, so we check for anything that needs attention before cosmetic work.
- Treatment plan. You get a clear plan covering the options that fit your goals, a realistic timeline and the cost, all before anything begins. Planning ahead for a wedding or a big event? Tell us your date so we can plan around it.
- Treatment. We carry out your chosen treatment carefully, checking shape, shade and bite as we go so the result looks natural on you.
- Aftercare. We explain how to look after your new smile, from brushing and flossing to habits that can stain or chip bonding and veneers, and we are on WhatsApp if questions come up later.
Premium care, affordable pricing
The cost of cosmetic dentistry depends on a few honest factors:
- Which treatment you choose. Bonding, veneers and crowns involve different materials and amounts of work.
- How many teeth are involved. A single chipped tooth is a very different job from a full smile makeover.
- The condition of your teeth. If decay or gum problems need treating first, that becomes part of the plan.
- The material you prefer, for example tooth-coloured, silver or gold crowns.
Choosing the cheapest option is not always the cost-effective one. Cosmetic work that is rushed or poorly matched can chip, stain or need redoing, so you end up paying twice. Our aim is uncompromising quality at good value, so your result lasts and looks right. You will hear the full cost upfront at your free consultation, with no obligation to go ahead.
Frequently asked questions
Which is better for me, bonding or veneers?
It depends on how much change you want, the condition of your teeth and your budget. Bonding is quicker and more conservative, while veneers can give a more uniform result across several teeth. We will recommend what suits you at your consultation.
Does cosmetic dentistry hurt?
Bonding often needs little or no numbing. Where a tooth needs preparing, such as for a crown, local anaesthetic numbs the area, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain. Nervous? Let us know and we will take things at your pace.
How long do cosmetic treatments last?
No cosmetic treatment lasts forever, but good daily care, regular check-ups and avoiding habits like biting hard objects help your results last as long as possible. We will explain what to expect for your specific treatment.
