A confident smile can change the way you feel about yourself — and how others see you. If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and wished your teeth were whiter, straighter, or more even, dental veneers might be the perfect solution.
At Pinnacle Dental Centre, we’ve helped hundreds of patients in Nairobi transform their smiles with veneers. Here’s everything you need to know before making the decision.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin shells made from porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front of your teeth. Think of them as custom-made covers that mask imperfections and enhance your smile’s appearance.
What Can Veneers Fix?
Veneers are a popular choice for people who want to improve:
-
Discolored or stained teeth
-
Gaps between teeth
-
Chipped or broken teeth
-
Misshapen or uneven teeth
-
Slightly crooked teeth
Who Is a Good Candidate for Veneers?
You might be a good candidate if:
-
Your teeth and gums are healthy
-
You have cosmetic issues rather than functional problems
-
You maintain good oral hygiene
-
You’re not a heavy teeth grinder (or you’re willing to use a night guard)
Not sure? We offer consultations to assess your smile and help you decide if veneers are right for you.
Porcelain vs. Composite Veneers
There are two main types:
Porcelain Veneers:
-
Stronger and more stain-resistant
-
Natural-looking finish
-
Lasts 10–15 years with proper care
Composite Veneers:
-
More affordable
-
Can be done in a single visit
-
Lasts 5–7 years
We’ll help you choose the best option based on your smile goals and budget.
What’s the Process Like?
-
Consultation – We evaluate your teeth and discuss your desired outcome.
-
Preparation – A small amount of enamel is removed (for porcelain veneers).
-
Impressions – We take a mold or digital scan to create custom veneers.
-
Fitting – The veneers are bonded to your teeth and adjusted for comfort.
The entire process is safe, comfortable, and usually completed in 2–3 visits.
How to Take Care of Your Veneers
Good news — veneers don’t need special care! Just follow these simple tips:
-
Brush and floss daily
-
Avoid biting on hard objects (like ice or pens)
-
Visit your dentist for regular check-ups
-
Limit stain-causing foods and drinks if you choose composite veneers
